Source code for mppi.Utilities.BandStructure

"""
This file contains some useful functions and a class for dealing with bands structures.
The module can be loaded in the notebook in one of the following way

>>> from mppi import Utilities as U

>>> U.build_kpath

or, for instance, to load only BandStructure

>>> from mppi.Utilities import BandStructure
