[Cdk-devel] atomic number in Element constructor?

[Rajarshi G. <raj...@gm...>]

Why does the Element(String) constructor not set the atomic number?
The atomic number is unique to the element.

The current situation leads to the (IMO) poor behavior in that new
Atom("C") gives an IAtom object whose atomic number is null.
