Hi Jilberto,
I don't see an essential difference among the two methods. However, if you split into 5 runs, that allows you to get results 5x faster (assuming you send runs to 5 cores), and also it can provide you 2nd momenta (variances) of other quantities, which might give you some further insights.

Subject: [fluka-discuss]: question about eventbin
Dear Fluka expert
I'm new in FLUKA and I'm facing the following situation:
I would like to simulate 100.000 primary electrons and score energy by
means of EVENTBIN card. As far as I understand, EVENTBIN card prints the
information event by event in the output file. Then I would like to
understand what is the difference between the following situations:
1) To simulate 100.000 primaries and score using EVENTBIN card. Then
process by my own code.
2) To simulate 5 RUNS with 20.000 primaries each one and score using
EVENTBIN card. Then in order to have the 100.000 events, I just copy the
5 outputs and process with my own code.
In both cases, I will have a 100.000 primaries simulated.
Thank in advance.
Regards,
Jilberto
