The code is written in Python and requires Python version 2.6 or later (but not Python 3) with the following external Python libraries:

• numpy
• scipy
• Assimulo >=2.9

In addition, some of the plotting functions may require:

• matplotlib
• pyROOT

For a successful installation of Assilumo, SUNDIALS must also be installed.

A script for installing Sundials and Assimulo is provided:

assimulo_installer.sh

The script downloads ths Sundials tarball and installs in a local folder (./sundials). It then installs Assimulo in the local user folder using pip. The installation can then be checked running:

python check_installation.py

After the installation the user must add the path to the Sundials lib folder (./sundials/lib) to its enviroment variable (LD_LIBRARY_PATH).

A basic example of how to run the code is provided by Example.py. If all dependencies have been successfully installed, this code can be run as:

   Example.py -p parameters.ini -o output.dat -P

The resulting output will be written to the output file output.dat. If the flag -P is set, a simple plot showing the evolution of the energy densities will also be displayed.
