Core objects: Containers --- :mod:`MDAnalysis.core.groups`
==========================================================
The :class:`~MDAnalysis.core.universe.Universe` instance contains all the
particles in the system (which MDAnalysis calls :class:`Atom`). Groups of
:class:`atoms<Atom>` are handled as :class:`AtomGroup` instances. The
:class:`AtomGroup` is probably the most important object in MDAnalysis because
virtually everything can be accessed through it. :class:`AtomGroup` instances
can be easily created (e.g., from an :meth:`AtomGroup.select_atoms` selection or
simply by slicing).
For convenience, chemically meaningful groups of :class:`Atoms<Atom>` such as a
:class:`Residue` or a :class:`Segment` (typically a whole molecule or all of the
solvent) also exist as containers, as well as groups of these units
(:class:`ResidueGroup`, :class:`SegmentGroup`).

Levels
------
Each of the above classes has a *level* attribute.  This can be used to verify
that two objects are of the same level, or to access a particular class

        For a 10-atom molecule with atoms organized into compounds C0 through
        C2::
           at.id:  0  1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9
        compound: C0 C0 C0 C0 C1 C1 C2 C2 C2 C2
        this function will yield an `atom_masks` list with two submasks: one
        for compounds of size 2 and one for compounds of size 4:
        [array([[4, 5]]),
         array([[1, 2, 3, 0],
                [8, 7, 6, 9]])]
        (Note that atom order within component submasks may be lost unless a
        `stable_sort` is requested)
        These submasks can be used directly to fancy-index arrays of the same
        length as self (including :class:`AtomGroups<AtomGroup>`).
        This function also returns `compound_masks`, the boolean mapping of
        each of the `atom_masks` submask into the original compound order::
        [array([False,  True, False]),
         array([ True, False,  True])]
        Parameters
        ----------
        compound : {'segments', 'residues', 'molecules', 'fragments'}

        stable_sort : bool, optional
            Whether to ensure that, when needed, sorting does not affect an
            atom's order within a compound (at a cost to performance). E.g.,
            for an unwrap operation it is important that the first atom of a
            compound is always the same, whereas a center-of-geometry
            computation wouldn't care.

        Parameters
        ----------

        All atoms of the group will be moved so that the centers of its

        cells, the primary periodic image is defined as the half-open interval
        :math:`[0,L_i)` between :math:`0` and boxlength :math:`L_i` in all
        dimensions :math:`i\in\{x,y,z\}`, i.e., the origin of the of the
        simulation box is taken to be at the origin :math:`(0,0,0)` of the
        euclidian coordinate system. A compound center residing at position
        :math:`x_i` in dimension :math:`i` will be shifted to :math:`x_i'`
        according to
        .. math::
           x_i' = x_i - \left\lfloor\frac{x_i}{L_i}\right\rfloor\,.
        When specifying a `compound`, the translation is calculated based on
        each compound. The same translation is applied to all atoms
        within this compound, meaning it will not be broken by the shift.
        This might however mean that not all atoms of a compound will be
        inside the unit cell after wrapping, but rather will be the center of
        the compound.
        Be aware of the fact that only atoms *belonging to the group* will be
        taken into account!
        `center` allows to define how the center of each group is computed.
        This can be either ``'com'`` for center of mass, or ``'cog'`` for
        center of geometry.
        `box` allows a unit cell to be given for the transformation. If not
        specified, the :attr:`~MDAnalysis.coordinates.timestep.Timestep.dimensions`
        information from the current
        :class:`~MDAnalysis.coordinates.timestep.Timestep` will be used.

        This function is most useful when atoms have been packed into the
        primary unit cell, causing breaks mid-molecule, with the molecule then
        appearing on either side of the unit cell. This is problematic for

        Parameters
        ----------
        compound : {'group', 'segments', 'residues', 'molecules', \
                    'fragments'}, optional
            Which type of compound to unwrap. Note that, in any case, all
            atoms within each compound must be interconnected by bonds, i.e.,
            compounds must correspond to (parts of) molecules.
        reference : {'com', 'cog', None}, optional
            If ``'com'`` (center of mass) or ``'cog'`` (center of geometry), the
            unwrapped compounds will be shifted so that their individual
            reference point lies within the primary unit cell.
            If ``None``, no such shift is performed.
        inplace : bool, optional
            If ``True``, coordinates are modified in place.
        Returns
        -------
        coords : numpy.ndarray
            Unwrapped atom coordinate array of shape ``(n, 3)``.
        Raises
        ------
        NoDataError
            If `compound` is ``'molecules'`` but the underlying topology does
            not contain molecule information, or if `reference` is ``'com'``
            but the topology does not contain masses.
        ValueError
            If `reference` is not one of ``'com'``, ``'cog'``, or ``None``, or
            if `reference` is ``'com'`` and the total mass of any `compound` is
            zero.
        Note
        ----
        Be aware of the fact that only atoms *belonging to the group* will
        be unwrapped! If you want entire molecules to be unwrapped, make sure
        that all atoms of these molecules are part of the group.

class AtomGroup(GroupBase):
    """An ordered array of atoms.
    Can be initiated from an iterable of :class:`Atoms<Atom>`::
        ag = AtomGroup([Atom1, Atom2, Atom3])
    Or from providing a list of indices and the
    :class:`~MDAnalysis.core.universe.Universe` it should belong to::
        ag = AtomGroup([72, 14, 25], u)
    Alternatively, an :class:`AtomGroup` is generated by indexing/slicing
    another :class:`AtomGroup`, such as the group of all :class:`Atoms<Atom>` in
    the :class:`~MDAnalysis.core.universe.Universe` at
    :attr:`MDAnalysis.core.universe.Universe.atoms`.
    An :class:`AtomGroup` can be indexed and sliced like a list::
        ag[0], ag[-1]
    will return the first and the last :class:`Atom` in the group whereas the
    slice::
        ag[0:6:2]
    returns an :class:`AtomGroup` of every second element, corresponding to
    indices 0, 2, and 4.
    It also supports "advanced slicing" when the argument is a
    :class:`numpy.ndarray` or a :class:`list`::
        aslice = [0, 3, -1, 10, 3]
        ag[aslice]
    will return a new :class:`AtomGroup` of :class:`Atoms<Atom>` with those
    indices in the old :class:`AtomGroup`.
    Finally, :class:`AtomGroups<AtomGroup>` can be created from a selection.
    See :meth:`select_atoms`.
    .. note::
        :class:`AtomGroups<AtomGroup>` originating from a selection are sorted
        and duplicate elements are removed. This is not true for
        :class:`AtomGroups<AtomGroup>` produced by slicing. Thus, slicing can be
        used when the order of atoms is crucial (for instance, in order to
        define angles or dihedrals).
    :class:`AtomGroups<AtomGroup>` can be compared and combined using group
    operators. For instance, :class:`AtomGroups<AtomGroup>` can be concatenated
    using `+` or :meth:`concatenate`::
        ag_concat = ag1 + ag2  # or ag_concat = ag1.concatenate(ag2)
    When groups are concatenated, the order of the :class:`Atoms<Atom>` is
    conserved. If :class:`Atoms<Atom>` appear several times in one of the
    groups, the duplicates are kept in the resulting group. On the contrary to
    :meth:`concatenate`, :meth:`union` treats the :class:`AtomGroups<AtomGroup>`
    as sets so that duplicates are removed from the resulting group, and
    :class:`Atoms<Atom>` are ordered. The `|` operator is synomymous to
    :meth:`union`::
        ag_union = ag1 | ag2  # or ag_union = ag1.union(ag2)
    The opposite operation to :meth:`concatenate` is :meth:`subtract`. This
    method creates a new group with all the :class:`Atoms<Atom>` of the group
    that are not in a given other group; the order of the :class:`Atoms<Atom>`
    is kept, and so are duplicates. :meth:`difference` is the set version of
    :meth:`subtract`. The resulting group is sorted and deduplicated.
    All set methods are listed in the table below. These methods treat the
    groups as sorted and deduplicated sets of :class:`Atoms<Atom>`.

    The `in` operator allows to test if an :class:`Atom` is in the
    :class:`AtomGroup`.
    :class:`AtomGroup` instances are always bound to a
    :class:`MDAnalysis.core.universe.Universe`. They cannot exist in isolation.
    During serialization, :class:`AtomGroup` will be pickled with its bound
    :class:`MDAnalysis.core.universe.Universe` which means after unpickling,
    a new :class:`MDAnalysis.core.universe.Universe` will be created and
    be attached by the new :class:`AtomGroup`. If the Universe is serialized
    with its :class:`AtomGroup`, they will still be bound together afterwards:
    .. testsetup:: AtomGroup
        import MDAnalysis as mda
        from MDAnalysis.tests.datafiles import PSF, DCD
    .. doctest:: AtomGroup
        >>> import pickle
        >>> u = mda.Universe(PSF, DCD)
        >>> g = u.atoms
        >>> g_pickled = pickle.loads(pickle.dumps(g))
        >>> print("g_pickled.universe is u: ", u is g_pickled.universe)
        g_pickled.universe is u:  False
        >>> g_pickled, u_pickled = pickle.loads(pickle.dumps((g, u)))
        >>> print("g_pickled.universe is u_pickled: ",
        ...       u_pickled is g_pickled.universe)
        g_pickled.universe is u_pickled:  True
    If multiple :class:`AtomGroup` are bound to the same
    :class:`MDAnalysis.core.universe.Universe`, they will bound to the same one
    after serialization:
    .. doctest:: AtomGroup
        >>> import pickle
        >>> u = mda.Universe(PSF, DCD)
        >>> g = u.atoms
        >>> h = u.atoms
        >>> g_pickled = pickle.loads(pickle.dumps(g))
        >>> h_pickled = pickle.loads(pickle.dumps(h))
        >>> print("g_pickled.universe is h_pickled.universe: ",
        ...       g_pickled.universe is h_pickled.universe)
        g_pickled.universe is h_pickled.universe:  False
        >>> g_pickled, h_pickled = pickle.loads(pickle.dumps((g, h)))
        >>> print("g_pickled.universe is h_pickled.universe: ",
        ...       g_pickled.universe is h_pickled.universe)
        g_pickled.universe is h_pickled.universe:  True
    The aforementioned two cases are useful for implementation of parallel
    analysis base classes. First, you always get an independent
    :class:`MDAnalysis.core.universe.Universe`
    in the new process; you don't have to worry about detaching and reattaching
    Universe with :class:`AtomGroup`. It also means the state of the
    new pickled AtomGroup will not be changed with the old Universe,
    So either the Universe has to pickled together with the AtomGroup
    (e.g. as a tuple, or as attributes of the object to be pickled), or the
    implicit new Universe (`AtomGroup.Universe`) needs to be used.
    Second, When multiple AtomGroup need to be pickled, they will recognize if
    they belong to the same Univese or not.
    Also keep in mind that they need to be pickled together.

        Subselections can be grouped with parentheses.
        .. doctest:: AtomGroup.select_atoms
            >>> sel = universe.select_atoms("segid 4AKE and not ( name H* O* )")
            >>> sel
            <AtomGroup with 1336 atoms>
        Existing :class:`AtomGroup` objects can be passed as named arguments,

        Selections can be set to update automatically on frame change, by
        setting the `updating` keyword argument to `True`.  This will return
        a :class:`UpdatingAtomGroup` which can represent the solvation shell
        around another object.

            <AtomGroup with 454 atoms, with selection
            'resname SOL and around 2.0 protein' on the entire Universe.>
        Notes
        -----
        If exact ordering of atoms is required (for instance, for
        :meth:`~AtomGroup.angle` or :meth:`~AtomGroup.dihedral` calculations)
        then one supplies selections *separately* in the required order. Also,
        when multiple :class:`AtomGroup` instances are concatenated with the
        ``+`` operator, then the order of :class:`Atom` instances is preserved
        and duplicates are *not* removed.
        See Also
        --------

        .. rubric:: Selection syntax
        The selection parser understands the following CASE SENSITIVE
        *keywords*:
        **Simple selections**
            protein, backbone, nucleic, nucleicbackbone
                selects all atoms that belong to a standard set of residues;
                a protein is identfied by a hard-coded set of residue names so
                it  may not work for esoteric residues.
            segid *seg-name*
                select by segid (as given in the topology), e.g. ``segid 4AKE``
                or ``segid DMPC``
            resid *residue-number-range*
                resid can take a single residue number or a range of numbers. A
                range consists of two numbers separated by a colon (inclusive)
                such as ``resid 1:5``. A residue number ("resid") is taken
                directly from the topology.
                If icodes are present in the topology, then these will be
                taken into account.  Ie 'resid 163B' will only select resid
                163 with icode B while 'resid 163' will select only residue 163.
                Range selections will also respect icodes, so 'resid 162-163B'
                will select all residues in 162 and those in 163 up to icode B.
            resnum *resnum-number-range*
                resnum is the canonical residue number; typically it is set to
                the residue id in the original PDB structure.
            resname *residue-name*
                select by residue name, e.g. ``resname LYS``
            name *atom-name*
                select by atom name (as given in the topology). Often, this is
                force field dependent. Example: ``name CA`` (for Cα atoms)
                or ``name OW`` (for SPC water oxygen)
            type *atom-type*
                select by atom type; this is either a string or a number and
                depends on the force field; it is read from the topology file
                (e.g. the CHARMM PSF file contains numeric atom types). It has
                non-sensical values when a PDB or GRO file is used as a topology
            atom *seg-name*  *residue-number*  *atom-name*
                a selector for a single atom consisting of segid resid atomname,
                e.g. ``DMPC 1 C2`` selects the C2 carbon of the first residue of
                the DMPC segment
            altloc *alternative-location*
                a selection for atoms where alternative locations are available,
                which is often the case with high-resolution crystal structures
                e.g. `resid 4 and resname ALA and altloc B` selects only the
                atoms of ALA-4 that have an altloc B record.
            moltype *molecule-type*
                select by molecule type, e.g. ``moltype Protein_A``. At the
                moment, only the TPR format defines the molecule type.
            record_type *record_type*
                for selecting either ATOM or HETATM from PDB-like files.
                e.g. ``select_atoms('name CA and not record_type HETATM')``
            smarts *SMARTS-query*
                select atoms using Daylight's SMARTS queries, e.g. ``smarts
                [#7;R]`` to find nitrogen atoms in rings. Requires RDKit.
                All matches are combined as a single unique match. The `smarts`
                selection accepts two sets of key word arguments from
                `select_atoms()`: the ``rdkit_kwargs`` are passed internally to
                `RDKitConverter.convert()` and the ``smarts_kwargs`` are passed to
                RDKit's `GetSubstructMatches
                <https://www.rdkit.org/docs/source/rdkit.Chem.rdchem.html#rdkit.Chem.rdchem.Mol.GetSubstructMatches>`_.
                By default, the `useChirality` kwarg in ``rdkit_kwargs`` is set to true
                and maxMatches in ``smarts_kwargs`` is
                ``max(1000, 10 * n_atoms)``, where ``n_atoms`` is either
                ``len(AtomGroup)`` or ``len(Universe.atoms)``, whichever is
                applicable. Note that the number of matches can occasionally
                exceed the default value of maxMatches, causing too few atoms
                to be returned. If this occurs, a warning will be issued. The
                problem can be fixed by increasing the value of maxMatches.
                This behavior may be updated in the future.

            chiral *R | S*
                select a particular stereocenter. e.g. ``name C and chirality
                S`` to select only S-chiral carbon atoms.  Only ``R`` and
                ``S`` will be possible options but other values will not raise
                an error.
            formalcharge *formal-charge*
                select atoms based on their formal charge, e.g.
                ``name O and formalcharge -1`` to select all oxygens with a
                negative 1 formal charge.
        **Boolean**
            not
                all atoms not in the selection, e.g. ``not protein`` selects
                all atoms that aren't part of a protein
            and, or
                combine two selections according to the rules of boolean
                algebra, e.g. ``protein and not resname ALA LYS``
                selects all atoms that belong to a protein, but are not in a
                lysine or alanine residue
        **Geometric**
            around *distance*  *selection*
                selects all atoms a certain cutoff away from another selection,
                e.g. ``around 3.5 protein`` selects all atoms not belonging to
                protein that are within 3.5 Angstroms from the protein
            point *x* *y* *z*  *distance*
                selects all atoms within a cutoff of a point in space, make sure
                coordinate is separated by spaces,
                e.g. ``point 5.0 5.0 5.0  3.5`` selects all atoms within 3.5
                Angstroms of the coordinate (5.0, 5.0, 5.0)
            prop [abs] *property*  *operator*  *value*
                selects atoms based on position, using *property*  **x**, **y**,
                or **z** coordinate. Supports the **abs** keyword (for absolute
                value) and the following *operators*: **<, >, <=, >=, ==, !=**.
                For example, ``prop z >= 5.0`` selects all atoms with z
                coordinate greater than 5.0; ``prop abs z <= 5.0`` selects all
                atoms within -5.0 <= z <= 5.0.
            sphzone *radius* *selection*
                Selects all atoms that are within *radius* of the center of
                geometry of *selection*
            sphlayer *inner radius* *outer radius* *selection*
                Similar to sphzone, but also excludes atoms that are within
                *inner radius* of the selection COG
            isolayer *inner radius* *outer radius* *selection*
                Similar to sphlayer, but will find layer around all reference
                layer, creating an iso-surface.
            cyzone *externalRadius* *zMax* *zMin* *selection*
                selects all atoms within a cylindric zone centered in the
                center of geometry (COG) of a given selection,
                e.g. ``cyzone 15 4 -8 protein and resid 42`` selects the
                center of geometry of protein and resid 42, and creates a
                cylinder of external radius 15 centered on the COG. In z, the
                cylinder extends from 4 above the COG to 8 below. Positive
                values for *zMin*, or negative ones for *zMax*, are allowed.
            cylayer *innerRadius* *externalRadius* *zMax* *zMin* *selection*
                selects all atoms within a cylindric layer centered in the
                center of geometry (COG) of a given selection,
                e.g. ``cylayer 5 10 10 -8 protein`` selects the center of
                geometry of protein, and creates a cylindrical layer of inner
                radius 5, external radius 10 centered on the COG. In z, the
                cylinder extends from 10 above the COG to 8 below. Positive
                values for *zMin*, or negative ones for *zMax*, are allowed.
        **Connectivity**
            byres *selection*
                selects all atoms that are in the same segment and residue as
                selection, e.g. specify the subselection after the byres keyword
            bonded *selection*
                selects all atoms that are bonded to selection
                eg: ``select name H and bonded name O`` selects only hydrogens
                bonded to oxygens
        **Index**
            bynum *index-range*
                selects all atoms within a range of (1-based) inclusive indices,
                e.g. ``bynum 1`` selects the first atom in the universe;
                ``bynum 5:10`` selects atoms 5 through 10 inclusive. All atoms
                in the :class:`~MDAnalysis.core.universe.Universe` are
                consecutively numbered, and the index runs from 1 up to the
                total number of atoms.
            index *index-range*
                selects all atoms within a range of (0-based) inclusive indices,
                e.g. ``index 0`` selects the first atom in the universe;
                ``index 5:10`` selects atoms 6 through 11 inclusive. All atoms
                in the :class:`~MDAnalysis.core.universe.Universe` are
                consecutively numbered, and the index runs from 0 up to the
                total number of atoms - 1.
        **Preexisting selections**
            group `group-name`
                selects the atoms in the :class:`AtomGroup` passed to the
                function as a keyword argument named `group-name`. Only the
                atoms common to `group-name` and the instance
                :meth:`~MDAnalysis.core.groups.AtomGroup.select_atoms`
                was called from will be considered, unless ``group`` is
                preceded by the ``global`` keyword. `group-name` will be
                included in the parsing just by comparison of atom indices.
                This means that it is up to the user to make sure the
                `group-name` group was defined in an appropriate
                :class:`~MDAnalysis.core.universe.Universe`.
            global *selection*
                by default, when issuing
                :meth:`~MDAnalysis.core.groups.AtomGroup.select_atoms` from an
                :class:`~MDAnalysis.core.groups.AtomGroup`, selections and
                subselections are returned intersected with the atoms of that
                instance. Prefixing a selection term with ``global`` causes its
                selection to be returned in its entirety.  As an example, the
                ``global`` keyword allows for
                ``lipids.select_atoms("around 10 global protein")`` --- where
                ``lipids`` is a group that does not contain any proteins. Were
                ``global`` absent, the result would be an empty selection since
                the ``protein`` subselection would itself be empty. When issuing
                :meth:`~MDAnalysis.core.groups.AtomGroup.select_atoms` from a
                :class:`~MDAnalysis.core.universe.Universe`, ``global`` is
                ignored.
        **Dynamic selections**
            If :meth:`~MDAnalysis.core.groups.AtomGroup.select_atoms` is
            invoked with named argument `updating` set to `True`, an
            :class:`~MDAnalysis.core.groups.UpdatingAtomGroup` instance will be
            returned, instead of a regular
            :class:`~MDAnalysis.core.groups.AtomGroup`. It behaves just like
            the latter, with the difference that the selection expressions are
            re-evaluated every time the trajectory frame changes (this happens
            lazily, only when the
            :class:`~MDAnalysis.core.groups.UpdatingAtomGroup` is accessed so
            that there is no redundant updating going on).
            Issuing an updating selection from an already updating group will
            cause later updates to also reflect the updating of the base group.
            A non-updating selection or a slicing operation made on an
            :class:`~MDAnalysis.core.groups.UpdatingAtomGroup` will return a
            static :class:`~MDAnalysis.core.groups.AtomGroup`, which will no
            longer update across frames.

        Note
        ----
        The :attr:`atoms` attribute of an :class:`UpdatingAtomGroup` behaves
        differently from :attr:`AtomGroup.atoms`: the latter returns the
        :class:`AtomGroup` itself whereas the former returns a
        :class:`AtomGroup` and not an :class:`UpdatingAtomGroup` (for this, use
        :meth:`UpdatingAtomGroup.copy`).
        Example
        -------
        The static :attr:`atoms` allows comparison of groups of atoms between
        frames. For example, track water molecules that move in and out of a
        solvation shell of a protein
        .. code-block:: python
            u = mda.Universe(TPR, XTC)
            water_shell = u.select_atoms("name OW and around 3.5 protein",
                                         updating=True)
            water_shell_prev = water_shell.atoms
            for ts in u.trajectory:
                exchanged = water_shell - water_shell_prev
            print(ts.time, "waters in shell =", water_shell.n_residues)
            print(ts.time, "waters that exchanged = ", exchanged.n_residues)
            print(ts.time, "waters that remained bound = ",
                  water_shell.n_residues - exchanged.n_residues)
            water_shell_prev = water_shell.atoms
        By remembering the atoms of the current time step in
        `water_shell_prev`, it becomes possible to use the :meth:`subtraction
        of AtomGroups<AtomGroup.subtract>` to find the water molecules that
        changed.
