   - Compute the three surface energies: you need to compute the area, subtract bulk contribution, take care of the units.   - Compute the three surface energies: you need to compute the area, subtract bulk contribution, take care of the units.
   - In the class we will learn how to compute the Wulff crystal from these three numbers.   - In the class we will learn how to compute the Wulff crystal from these three numbers.
-  - Basically, you should edit the input file "DP", replacing the column beginning with "PUT_HERE_THE_XXX_SURFACE_ENERGY" with quantities that are proportional to the three surface free energies (see Wulff theorem). Note that for the {100} and {110} surfaces you need to edit **TWO** lines each, since the **z** direction is treated differently in this program. +  - Basically, you should edit the input file "DP", replacing the column beginning with **"PUT_HERE_THE_XXX_SURFACE_ENERGY"** with quantities that are proportional to the three surface free energies (see Wulff theorem).
