<P><B>Description:</B>
</P>
<P>Define a computation that sums the results of two or more other
computes for each atom in a group. This is useful for summing atom
properties such as pairwise energy, bond energy, kinetic energy, etc.
The resulting values can be accessed by any command that uses per-atom
computes, e.g. the <A HREF = "dump.html">dump custom</A> command or <A HREF = "fix_ave_spatial.html">fix
ave/spatial</A> command or <A HREF = "fix_ave_atom.html">fix
ave/atom</A> command.
</P>
<P>The result of this compute depends on the results generated by the
other computes that it invokes. E.g. if the other computes each
generate a scalar value per atom, so will this compute. If the other
computes each generate a vector of values per atom, so will this
compute. In the latter case, all the other computes must generate
vectors of the same size.
