    Computational Aspects and Basis Sets
    Quantum chemical calculations require the conversion of continuous operators into discrete matrix algebra. This necessitates the use of basis sets, which are predefined sets of mathematical functions (typically Gaussian-type orbitals, GTOs) used to represent the molecular orbitals:
