(c) The parameters used in the INDO geometry optimizations are different from the parameters used in the INDO electronic structure calculations, the main difference being in the choice of the two electron integrals. In the geometry optimization these integrals are theoretically calculated, and in the electronic structure calculations these are parametrized using the Ohno-Klopmann approximation.
