Abstract: The historical development of MINDO/3 and MNDO is outlined in relation to the parallel developments of the ab initio SCF approach. It is pointed out that both treatments are purely empirical so far as chemistry is concerned and complement one another, MINDO/3 and MNDO allowing calculations to be carried out when ab initio methods of comparable performance are inapplicable because they need one-thousand times more computing time.
