I've been searching through the Internet and I found that the orbital 
quantum number of an atom (l) can be between 0 and the principal quantum 
number (n) subtracted by 1. But all the other websites I've searched only 
stated the first four orbitals: s, p, d, f. Are there more? If so, what 
are they called?
