Rép. : MCSim model

[Frédéric BOIS]

There is no way to know waht was their intended purpose if they are not
used in the 
model file or input file. M_ (or V_) have no special conventional
meaning and you can name
your parameters the way you want.

I am trying to interpret a model that someone else wrote.  There is a
series of parameters that start with "V_" and "M_" underscore in the
code.  I know that the ones starting with "V_" are used to define the
variances for the given parameters and are used in distribution
definitions.  The ones starting with "M_" are not used anywhere (i.e.,
not in the input files) other than in the code where they are set to a
value of 1.  Could you possible tell me what these parameters might
represent and how they would be expected to be used (i.e., in
distribution definitions)?  Thanks!
