IsotopeNone

IsotopeNone is a value used in software and programming to denote the absence of a specific isotope or variant of an element. In the context of atomic science, isotopes are different versions of the same element that have the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons. When IsotopeNone is specified, it indicates that no particular isotope is being selected or that the default or unspecified isotope should be used. This helps algorithms and programs handle situations where the isotope detail is either irrelevant or unknown, ensuring flexibility and accuracy in scientific computations or data processing.
