Syscalc is deprecated but to see the associate options type'update syscalc'

Asked by Benslama Hana

If it is possible, please I need your help?
I' m new in madgraph5 and madanalysis. For madanalysis to import some events other than those exist in samples, I have to generate theme using Madgraph. Here are the following commands that I typed on the madgraph consol: as an example
generate p p > t t~, then output and finally for launch when I choosed 0 enter then 0 enter, every thing worked very well and the result was saved in an html file. But I need to change the number of events as well as the Beam energy, and thus I typed 0 enter then 2 enter. However the consol displayed this message:"~/Desktop/programs/MG5_aMC_v2_7_0/PROC_sm_4/Cards/run_card.dat" [Incomplete last line] 130 lines, 8428 characters
Press ENTER or type command to continue. When I typed enter, I found at the end of the paper this paragraph:
systematics = systematics_program ! none, systematics [python], SysCalc [depreceted, C++]
['--mur=0.5,1,2', '--muf=0.5,1,2', '--pdf=errorset'] = systematics_arguments ! see: https://cp3.irmp.ucl.ac.be/projects/madgraph/wiki/Systematics#Systematicspythonmodule
# Syscalc is deprecated but to see the associate options type'update syscalc'

PLease I do not understand What I have to do

Hi,

I have never seen such message. The question is "who" is writing such message.
So the question is which text-editor are you (trying) to use?
Did you have set one in the configuration file? (or did you set the $EDITOR environment variable)
 If not maybe it would be useful to force vi or emacs for text_editor in input/mg5_configuration.txt

Cheers,

Olivier

PS: are you on windows? This can also explains stuff if you do

Hello Olivier,

I'm working on ubuntu which is installed in a VMware worstation pro15. I tried to generate an event and I want to modify the beam energy and the number of events using run cards, but in the launch step I clicked on 0 then 2, the consol of madgraph displayed this message.

I believe that this is a message from vim.
Which version of vim do you have on your system?
Does it open the file when you type "2" or does it not?

If it does, you can edit the file and ignore this message.

Cheers,

Olivier

Dear Olivier,

When I write vim --version, the terminal displays that I can install it
using sudo apt install, and I just do it at this moment (sudo apt install
vim). For the file it is not opened, I'll try to send you all what appear
in the consol.

Hi,

Ok this sounds to work ok now.
In order to pass in edit mode for vim,
you need to type "i"
and when you are done you have to press escape then ":x"

Cheers,

Olivier

PS: a simpler way to edit the beam energy/number of events is to type (instead of "2")
set ebeam 25k # change each beam to 25TeV
set nevents 100k # change number of events to 100000

Cheers,

Olivier

Hi,
A great thanks should be given to you for all your helps.
For the energy I put :set ebeam 4000.0 # change each beam to 4000Gev
For tne Nb of events: set nevents 1000 # change number of events to 1000
and when I opened the file that contains the information of the event I
found the value of the energy changed but the number of events did not
change, could you show me how to put 1000 events, please?

HI,

Do you have an error/warning when typing
"set nevents 1000"
In principle you should have an information message stating if the change was applied or not.

Cheers,

Olivier

Hi,

Yes I have a warning zritten in bleu :1000.0 # change number of events to
