		                        Hello 
 
Just for a test run on H atomic energy. I was doing a "task dft energy" calculation with and without noscf tag in dft block. I obtained energies differing by 4e^-4 H=0.01 eV (not bad). I know doing such a calculation doesn't make sense but still I wanted to confirm that non self consistent cycles would give the same energies which is not the case.
