Using the Available Methods
===========================

As the name implies, pydmqmc was original written to perform Density Matrix Quantum Monte
Carlo (DMQMC) simulations. Support for a broader variety of methods is planned for future releases.

The pydmqmc library is able to support both iterative calculations---such as it's DMQMC namesake---
and analytic calculations like Full Configuration Interaction (FCI). The supported methods are listed
below based on these two categories.
