Alternative to get_cell() ase method for pymatgen

Hi everybody,

I’m currently dealing with crystal structures data and I’m wondering which is the equivalent to get_cell() method for pymatgen. Apologise if this is straightforward but I currently can’t figure out by myself.

Best regards,

Federico

Given a Structure object called structure, the lattice is stored as an attribute and represented as a Lattice object. You can access it as structure.lattice, or if you simply need the matrix representation of the lattice you can use structure.lattice.matrix. The lattice object (rather than the simple matrix representation) contains other potentially useful methods, attributes, etc. regarding the lattice when applicable and you can read about it in pymatgen.core.lattice
