Pople notation is a system used in computational chemistry to categorize the quality and sophistication of methods used in quantum chemistry, particularly in relation to the Gaussian family of software. It was developed by the Nobel Prize-winning chemist Sir John Pople. The notation consists of a series of letters and numbers that indicate the basis set and the level of theory being used.
