Welcome to documentation of the and-python project.

You will find here information on the organisation of the project, both for the physics of quantum disordered systems and for the numerical implementation, as well as explanations on how to use the software.

How to get it on your computer?

The code is hosted on Github, in the repository and-python owned by delande. It is now a public repository, which can be used by anybody.

In order to clone (=copy) the current version of and-python on your computer, go to the proper directory where you want to install and type:

git clone https://github.com/delande/and-python.git

If you have already a Github account, you may also use:

git clone git@github-and-python:delande/and-python.git

you should have the copy in the and-python directory.

If later, you want to update your local copy, use:

git pull

You may also use graphical interfaces such as gitk.

You are STRONGLY ADVISED not to modify any file of the local copy, as it will produce merge problems the next time you pull the repository. If you want to customize some file, make a copy elsewhere and modify it there. Users do not have the right to push changes to the Github repository. If you make some clever modification, send it to Dominique.Delande@lkb.upmc.fr who may (or may not) push it to the Github repository.

There may also be in a near future some very selected users with read/write rights.

In order to use the software to produce something useful, you should hae a look at the following page: How to run a numerical simulation?
