<longdescription>
p3d was developed in order to offer a Python module that is powerful and fast,
yet intuitive to use. The simplicity of p3d is due to the usage of object
oriented programming (i.e. atoms are treated as vectors), the implementation
of a query parser that translates queries readable by humans into a combination
of algebra set operations the fact that no additional Python packages are
necessary. The speed is due to the usage of a binary space partitioning (BSP)
tree which allows very fast queries in 3D (Henry et al. 1980). The additional
synergy is obtained by the flexible combination of both speed and complexity in
the queries to the structural data. The combination of these factors makes p3d
the optimal module to rapidly develop new and powerful bioinformatic tools that
follow the Python philosophy of making the source code readable.
