DO’s<br />

Finally…<br />

DON’T’s<br />

Consult the user guide with any<br />

problems or for more detail<br />

Consult the HyperNews forum if<br />

you get stuck<br />

Just start playing around with one<br />

<strong>of</strong> the codes<br />

If you get a bug in it you can’t fix,<br />

you can always download it again<br />

Always think about what you<br />

need in terms <strong>of</strong> physics and<br />

cut values<br />

Do discard physics and events you don’t<br />

need:<br />

you are the expert <strong>of</strong> your work<br />

Treat this lecture as a<br />

replacement <strong>of</strong> the User Guide:<br />

<strong>Geant4</strong> is very complex and<br />

cannot be explained fully in two<br />

hours<br />

Don’t wait until you are a C++<br />

expert before you start<br />

Don’t read the whole user guide<br />

before you start<br />

Don’t assume <strong>Geant4</strong> will “just<br />

get it right”<br />

Don’t let <strong>to</strong>o much detail slow<br />

you down
