<H3>create_box command
</H3>
<P><B>Syntax:</B>
</P>
<PRE>create_box N region-ID
</PRE>
<UL><LI>N = # of atom types to use in this simulation
<LI>region-ID = ID of region to use as simulation domain
</UL>
<P><B>Examples:</B>
</P>
<PRE>create_atoms 2 mybox
</PRE>
<P><B>Description:</B>
</P>
<P>This command creates a simulation box that encloses the specified
region. Thus a <A HREF = "region.html">region</A> command must first be used to
define a geometric domain. If the region is not of style <I>block</I>,
LAMMPS encloses it with a rectangular simulation box.
</P>
<P>The argument N is the number of atom types that will be used in the
simulation.
</P>
<P><B>Restrictions:</B>
</P>
<P>An <A HREF = "atom_style.html">atom_style</A> and <A HREF = "region.html">region</A> must have
been previously defined to use this command.
