Dear FLUKA experts,

     As discussed earlier, I am trying to model 5 spherical source using
source.f card but not able to compile it.

   During compilation, it is giving following error


tarted 2018.04.23 18:19:50
>>> Compiling: /home/arghya/fluka/flutil/fff -b -N multi.f
multi.f:204:24:

       DIMENSION CENTERS(5)
                         1
Error: Invalid character in name at (1)
Ended: 2018.04.23 18:19:50

Error compiling
Error: compiling file: multi.f
No object generated



Please find attached source.f card also.

Kindly suggest me some solutions.

Thanking you in advance.

with regards
ArghyaC
