# Oblique Incidence Monte Carlo

This code simulates an obliquely incident photon source (pencil

beam) on a scattering medium. It can simulate one incident point

source or many. The program has been tested on and is known to

work on Linux and Windows 10.

## Configuration

Configuration is changed by copying `config.def.h` to `config.h`

and editing it. This configuration is then baked into the compiled

binary. This helps the compiler optimize the binary for a faster

runtime and keeps the types of configuration variables clear.

## Building

After copying over and editing `config.h` the program can be

compiled by running:

```

./build.sh

```

On Linux the only dependency is libc, on Windows winpthreads is

also required.

## Running

The compiled program can be run as:

```

./mc output_filename_prefix

```

Currently directories in `output_filename_prefix` are not checked

for existence prior to running so the program will fail to save

the output if you don't ensure this yourself.

## Citations

If you intend on using this as a basis for any published works a

citation, while not required, would be appreciated 🙂!
