The extrapolation functional is chosen by a keyword with the METHOD, METHOD_R, and/or METHOD_C options.
The default functional is L3.
In the following, is the cardinal number of the basis set (e.g., 2 for VDZ, 3 for VTZ etc), and
is an arbitrary number.
is a constant given either by the PR or PC options (default
).
X is a number or a vector given either by the XR or XC options (only for LX;
is the
number of elements provided in X).
,

are the fitting coefficients that are optioized by least-squares
fits.
The following example shows various possibilities for extrapolation:
The second example shows extrapolations of MRCI energies. In this case both the MRCI and the MRCI+Q energies are extrapolated.
