```
Spglib is a library for finding and handling crystal symmetries
written in C. There are the [python](python-interface.md),
{ref}`fortran, rust, and ruby <interfaces>` interfaces.
The detailed algorithm of spglib is described the following text:
- "$\texttt{Spglib}$: a software library for crystal symmetry search", Atsushi
Togo, Kohei Shinohara, and Isao Tanaka, Sci. Technol. Adv. Mater., Meth. 4,
2384822-2384836 (2024)
\[[link-sg](https://doi.org/10.1080/27660400.2024.2384822)\]
- "Algorithms for magnetic symmetry operation search and identification of
magnetic space group from magnetic crystal structure", Kohei Shinohara,
Atsushi Togo, and Isao Tanaka, Acta Cryst. A 79, 390-398 (2023)
\[[link-msg](https://doi.org/10.1107/S2053273323005016)\]
## Requirements
- C standard: As of version 2.1.0, Spglib explicitly enforces a minimum standard of
[C11](https://en.cppreference.com/w/c/11.html)
## Features
- Find symmetry operations
- Identify space-group type
- Wyckoff position assignment
- Refine crystal structure
- Find a primitive cell
- Search irreducible k-points
