in general, what is divided into 40, 54, 180 points are the three primitive
lattice vectors generating the lattice

2) There are a total of 388800 (40*54*180) points printed, which correspond

(1,0,0) would be point 41 but is not in the grid, because it is equal to
(0,0,0) (if your plot seems to miss something, that's why). Same for the
two other directions. Xcrysden should output data in the same order as in
FFT arrays: see point 6.3 of the developers' manual,
https://www.quantum-espresso.org/Doc/developer_man/developer_man.html

The next 40 points should be                   (0,1,0), (0.025,1,0) ..

Am I right in this regard? Any help would be much appreciated.
