#' Calculate Molecular Distance Edge (MDE) Descriptors for C, N and O
#'
#' This descriptor calculates the 10 molecular distance edge (MDE) descriptor
#' described in Liu, S., Cao, C., & Li, Z, and in addition it calculates
#' variants where O and N are considered.
#'
#' @param molecules Parsed molucule object.
#' @param silent Logical. Whether the calculating process
#' should be shown or not, default is \code{TRUE}.
#'
#' @return A data frame, each row represents one of the molecules,
#' each column represents one feature.
#' This function returns one column named \code{nAtomLAC}.
