- Edit the Makefile in a project directory.
- Configure the main file (usually main.f90), the initial configuration file (model.f90), and the boundary condition file (bc.f90) appropriately.
- Make and run the program.
- The program will output many files in the "data/" directory.
- Analyze the data. Sample Python and IDL scripts are provided. One can use them in the following way.
Python (matplotlib):
$ ipython3 --pylab
In [1]: %run -i plot.py
Python (Jupyter):
$ jupyter-notebook plot.ipynb
IDL:
$ idl
IDL> .r batch
