Dear Bruce and Scott, I am a beginner of IFEFFIT, trying to follow Scott's example. In the ZnO DEMO PART 1, everything went well before doing the fit, however when I click the green button "Fit", I was told by the message: This parameter uses a name which has special meaning in Ifeffit: dr You must change this parameter name before attempting to fit. One common example of this sort is a variable named "dr1", which should be changed to something like "dr_1" or "drone". Could you or anyone direct me? I would appreciate that. Best regards, Feng
I could write on and on about this topic, but I think it would be fruitful for you to follow the example that Scott Calvin wrote up. Look at:
http://cars9.uchicago.edu/~ravel/software/contrib.html
And download the ZnO example. This consists of a series of Artemis project files. Scott wrote comments in the journals of each project to walk you through the process of using Artemis to fit real data. I think that it would be helpful to you to work through this example carefully. I suspect that doing so will help to clear up some of your confusion.
If, after working through Scott's example, you still have questions -- we on the mailing list will be glad to help you out.
