Abstract
Structure factor algebra (Bertaut, 1956) provides a general method of incorporating space group symmetry into crystallographic programs. We shall consider some elementary applications, along the lines described by S.R. Hall at the 1970 Advanced Study Institute on Direct and Patterson Methods at Parma.
