A useful algorithm to find the Bravais lattice on a four‐circle diffractometer is developed based on Delaunay's method of classifying the primitive cell. It consists of the evaluation of scalar products between lattice vectors and successive application of transformations to obtain the Bravais lattice. The procedures are found to be satisfactory in practical applications.
