Some of my results were calculated with vasp 4.6.28 which is not include core charge, I want to know if the bade script can be used to analysis the CHGCAR file? Is the result accurate?
Here is the ACF.dat file,1-16 is Ag, 17 is C and 18-21 is H.

Those charges look pretty reasonable, but it would be much better to verify them using core charges.

The valence configuration of Ag should be 4d10 5s1, So why the number of Ag eletrons is about 16? I think it should be about 11.
