Notes on use of Etomica
Etomica is "beta" software, and it has not been widely distributed. This means that we haven't had much feedback yet from users regarding its performance and ease of use. In developing Etomica we have become accustomed to its idiosynchracies and weaknesses (bugs!), and perhaps have even come to think they are normal. Consequently...
- Something may not work as you'd expected, or some feature of the interface may not be intuitive to you. In this case...
- ...feedback about your experience with it would help us a lot to improve Etomica. Often problems or bad design elements are easily corrected by us if they're just brought to our attention.
- So please be patient, and take a moment to let us know if Etomica doesn't (or does) work as well as you had hoped. The email address is kofke@buffalo.edu
- There is Javadoc documentation for Etomica available to help sort through the Etomica classes.
