1. A method for constructing an array of synthetic molecular constructs, comprising the steps of:

  • forming a plurality of molecular constructs having a scaffold backbone of a chemical molecule comprising a linear, branched or cyclic organic compound having at least three atoms of carbon, nitrogen, sulfur, phosphorus or combinations thereof, and at least one location on the molecule capable of undergoing reaction with other molecules for attachment of at least one structural diversity element;

    laying out an array possessing a logical ordering of sub-arrays of said molecular constructs;

    providing each sub-array with molecular constructs having said scaffold backbone and at least one structural diversity element which is different from the others; and

    relating each sub-array within the array to all other sub arrays by said difference in said structural diversity elements.
