Differents grains

Hi Gabriel,

Great you find some interest in using pyCloudy.

You can add as amny dust grain description as you need by calling the set_grains method with a list of grains commands (without "grains" keyword) or various times.

import pycloudy as pc

cinput = pc.CloudyInput()

...

cinput.set_grains('graphite 2')

cinput.set_grains('silicate 3')

or

cinput.set_grains(['graphite 2', 'silicate 3')

If you need to reset the grains commands to empty, call set_grains without argument:

cinput.set_grains()

Hope it helps,

Cheers,

Chrisotphe

tipo in my previous email, sorry for that:

cinput.set_grains(['graphite 2', 'silicate 3')

must read:

cinput.set_grains(['graphite 2', 'silicate 3'])
