mrad run


mrad run [cfg_path]

Once we have a viable configuration file, we can use the run command to start the simulation. Once started, mrad will generate a Matrices and a Results directory at the current working directory. All of the essential matrix files will be stored inside the Matrices folders. Intermediate matrix files will be stored inside the system temp directory and removed after the simulation. All results will be saved to the Results directory.

The output with -vv verbosity setting is similar to the following:
