[CP2K-user] [CP2K:16729] Question about description of the GTH-dzv basis functions

Hello. Sorry to bother you.
I am a new CP2K user.
I am contacting you because I have a question.
That is regarding the interpretation of the information provided in the 
file of GTH basis functions.
I have referred to the information on CP2K basis functions, but I am not 
sure how the valence electrons are handled.
I want to use the GTH-dzv basis function for Mg.
The valence electrons of Mg should contain 3s electrons, but the principal 
quantum number n is only listed as 2.
I suspect that the file information below only provides information on the 
basis functions for 2s and 2p electrons.
Does it matter if 3s electrons are not included?
This may be a minor misunderstanding on my part, but would anyone care to 
discuss it?
