6.4 SEWARD — An Integral Generation Program
An ab initio calculation always requires integrals. In the
MOLCAS suite of programs, this function is supplied by the SEWARD
module. SEWARD computes the one- and two-electron integrals for the
molecule and basis set specified in the input to the program GATEWAY,
which should be run before SEWARD. SEWARD can also be used
to perform some property expectation calculations on the isolated molecule.
The module is also used as an input parser for the reaction field and
numerical quadrature parameters.
We commence our tutorial by calculating the integrals for a water molecule. The
input is given in Figure 6.4. Each MOLCAS module
identifies input from a file by the name of the module. In the case of
SEWARD, the program starts with the label
&SEWARD, which is the first statement in the file shown below.
In normal cases no input is required for SEWARD, so the following
input is optional. The first keyword used is TITLe. Only the first
line of the title is printed in the output. The first title line is also saved
in the integral file and appears in any subsequent programs that use the
integrals calculated by SEWARD.

Title
Water - A Tutorial. The integrals of water are calculated using C2v symmetry
In more complicated cases more input may be needed, to specify certain types of
integrals, that use of Cholesky decomposition techniques (CHOLesky keyword), etc. We refer to the
specific sections of the Users-Guide for more information.
The output from a SEWARD calculation is small and contains in principle
only a list of the different types of integrals that are computed.
The integrals produced by the SEWARD module are stored in
two files in the working directory. They are ascribed the FORTRAN
names ONEINT and ORDINT which are
automatically symbolically linked by the MOLCAS script to the file
names $Project.OneInt and
$Project.OrdInt, respectively
or more specifically, in our case, water.OneInt and
water.OrdInt, respectively. The default name for each
symbolical name is contained in the corresponding program files of the
directory $MOLCAS/shell.
The ONEINT file contains the one-electron integrals.
The ORDINT contains the ordered and packed two-electron integrals.
Both files are used by later MOLCAS program modules.
