The .par File Format
Results of a SCONE optimization are stored in files with the extension .par
. These are simple text files that can be opened and edited in any text editor, such as Notepad. An example of a .par
file looks like this:

There are four columns in this file, with the first column representing the parameter name. The subsequent columns represent best value, mean value, and standard deviation of each of the parameters.
When playing back a result stored in a .par
file, the best value is used for each parameter. When using a .par
file for initialization of an optimization, mean and standard deviation are used to represent the initial distribution.
