hello,
it's about k kpoint grid:
suppose I define the k point grid with ngkpt array I will get a total number
of
ngkpt(1) x ngkpt(2) x ngkpt(3) k-point.
now if I let abinit to chose a k point grid for me via kptrlen. it gives a
super cell in the real space defined with kptrlatt which is not, generally,
diagonal. so how one can get the total number of k-point as nkpt gives only
the
number in the IBZ.
