Thanks to @samwaseda for submitting an interesting package! mamonca
is a modular code for simulating magnetic interactions that fits in neatly with existing codes from the literature.
My comments are below — once they are addressed, I recommend this for publication.
conda
installation (my os is arm64). Perhaps mention that only linux installation is currently supported for the conda
install?cython
dependency is not currently listed — setup.py fails without a cython
install.mamonca
is largely uncommented. I understand that the docstrings are in the Python interface, but commenting through the C logic would make it more readable.get
? This information is in the docstring(s), and it should also be in the Quickstart.set_repeat
method, I get the following error: DeprecationWarning: pyiron_atomistics.atomistics.structure.atoms.set_repeat is deprecated: Use Atoms.repeat. when running structure.set_repeat
. Could this error be suppressed, circumvented, or explained?.set_repeat(10)
do? Why 10
? What do I do with the output? How do I know it’s run successfully? What things can go wrong?gett
ing the mean energy, are these units also in eV? Same question about the energy variance.ti_lambda
? What is fcc?lambda
being evaluated? pyiron
a bit more — e.g., what input parameters for the Hamiltonian are provided.mamonca
.@vipinagrawal25 thanks for getting started here - please let me know if you have any questions or need to set the review down.
@vipinagrawal25 thanks for getting started here - please let me know if you have any questions or need to set the review down.
@samwaseda I see there were some updates to the code repo a few weeks ago - should @arjunsavel have another look at things, or are there further edits needed?
Thank you very much for the review! The points were so pertinent and striking that I had to take some time making the changes! I will leave a comment here as soon as I am done with it.
@arjunsavel Thank you very much again for your review! I could see how much effort you must have put to see all these points, and I am very grateful for your sincerity. It took me now some time to make corrections to the package for me, but I think now I looked at all the points and it should be ready. There's only one point that I decided to deviate from: I did not include a figure in the paper, because if it is a figure about the Magnetic Monte Carlo method, those who are working in the area know precisely what kind of figure this software package should be able to deliver. For other features, such as thermodynamic integration or Metadynamics, I did not know how to present the figures without going too much into details. I hope the fact they are presented in the example notebook is acceptable.
hi @arjunsavel @vipinagrawal25 please give the code another look at your earliest convenience; there have been some revisions. if you have any questions or concerns or need to put the review down, please do let me know.

Thanks to @samwaseda for addressing my comments! The changes you made have made the package even cleaner.
I have a few (hopefully small) final requests:
Also, the LaTeX in the readme is a nice touch!
Thanks again for the comments! Now I made changes accordingly!
- What are the units (if any) for "lambda" in the first steps notebook?
I added "unitless" in the notebook
- What do you think of adding pyiron to the setup.py requirements?
That's in principle a great idea (and sorry for not commenting on this in my last entry). One main problem is that it takes a very long time to install pyiron, so those who don't need pyiron would definitely not want to install pyiron for no reason. I added the comments in README saying how to install pyiron, so I'm hoping it will be enough. What do you think?
- Could follow one of the suggestions here so that Cython isn't imported in setup.py before it's installed
Thanks for your support! I didn't know much about this part, but now I changed it according to what's written there. I hope now it works!
Thanks for your quick response!

This makes sense. Thank you for the explanation!

Thanks for working on this! I think the last thing to do, in addition to the setuptools version pin, is something like the below:
from setuptools.command.build_ext import build_ext
from setuptools import setup, Extension
ext = Extension(
'mamonca',
sources=["mamonca/mc.pyx"],
language="c++",
extra_compile_args=['-std=c++11'],
)
with open('README.md') as readme_file:
readme = readme_file.read()
setup(
name='mamonca',
version='0.0.8',
description='mamonca - interactive Magnetic Monte Carlo code',
long_description=readme,
long_description_content_type='text/markdown',
url='https://github.com/samwaseda/mamonca',
author='Sam Waseda',
author_email='waseda@mpie.de',
license='BSD',
cmdclass={"build_ext": build_ext},
ext_modules=[ext],
options={'build': {'build_lib': 'mamonca'}},
setup_requires=[
# Setuptools 18.0 properly handles Cython extensions.
'setuptools>=18.0',
'cython',
'numpy',
],
)
This way, Cython never needs to be imported at the top of the file, but setuptools
is told that it requires Cyython to build.
Thanks again! Now I made the changes and committed them!
Dear @samwaseda,
Firstly, please accept my apologies for the delay in completing the review of your paper. Thanks for the submission. I also would like to thank the editor @kellyrowland for choosing me as a reviewer and @arjunsavel for the thorough review.
The mamonca
package is built for computing free-energy for materials using Heisenberg Landau model. Additionally the package offers magnetic thermodynamic integration and metadynamics. I think the community will be benefitted from such software hence I recommend this for publication provided the comments outlined below are addressed.
General:
Purely financial (such as being named on an award) and organizational (such as general supervision of a research group) contributions are not considered sufficient for co-authorship of JOSS submissions, but active project direction and other forms of non-code contributions are.
Documentation:
mc.pyx
file contain good comments, I suggest adding comments to cMC.cpp
as well. Additionally, the use of Doxygen could benefit the user.Examples:
Paper:
hi @samwaseda 👋 just checking in here on how things are going and if you're able to address the above feedback.
Hi! Sorry it's taking some time, but I will hopefully finish the revision this week! Thanks for waiting!
no problem, thanks for the update!
hi @samwaseda just checking in here 👋 no worries if updates are still in progress.
Yes! Sorry it's still taking some time...
hi @samwaseda 👋 checking in again.
hi @samwaseda 👋 checking in - no problem if edits are taking some time, just a ping here.
Hi! Sorry I'm working on it. My main problem is how to reproduce well documented results mentioned by @vipinagrawal25. The results I can find in the literature most don't give the numerical data needed to reproduce them. I keep looking for more reliable literature.
no problem at all - @vipinagrawal25 would you be able to provide any pointers?

@samwaseda I realise that it can be a lot of work to do that. I had mentioned four points to verify the correctness of results.
1) Compute statistical quantities to validate the results from MC simulation. 2) Reproduce well-documented results. 3) Compare results with those obtained from other existing codes. 4) Similar benchmarks should be considered for magnetic thermodynamics integration and Metadynamics.
Can you please tell me which of these steps have been completed and which are pending?
Basically 2 is the main problem, because I haven't really been able to find well-documented results. There are indeed results, but in most of the cases they don't provide their parametrisation.
Okay. Please submit your report without including that particular point. I shall review it, and assess if it meets our requirements. As I'll be on vacation for the next 10 days, there's no rush to complete it.
thanks for the work here all - just checking in on things @samwaseda 👋
Sorry for being late. I finally found a reference data that I can compare the results to. I'll give you an update within a few days.
no problem! looking forward to an update
I have a question: The points raised by @vipinagrawal25 (comparison with existing results etc.) should be inside the paper, or is it enough to refer to notebooks in the same repository?
it would be beneficial for readers to include this information, if possible.
Sorry for going back and forth, but it looks to me like other articles (including the example article on the JOSS page) tend to summarise the functionalities of the code but not show comparison with other codes. Should I really include figures showing a comparison between my code and other results? Otherwise I already included a jupyter notebook showing such a comparison.
Inclusion of the notebook is fine; you can refer the reader to that.
Ok in that case I now updated the document indicating the notebooks. Please let me know if the format is good enough.
- Compute statistical quantities to validate the results from MC simulation.
- Reproduce well-documented results.
- Compare results with those obtained from other existing codes.
- Similar benchmarks should be considered for magnetic thermodynamics integration and Metadynamics.
I think now 1, 2 and 3 are fulfilled. For 4, it’s done for Metadynamics, but it’s difficult to prove it for thermodynamic integration. I included an example but it’s not a benchmark. I hope it’s still acceptable.
Sorry I focused so much on the four points above that I missed the other comments that @vipinagrawal25 had made. I'm gonna make the changes now and will come back here soon.
thanks very much for your work!
I just finished the updates. It would be great if you could take a look at it again. Thanks to you all for your time! I really appreciate your feedback!
Hi! I guess it's ready for a review. So it would be great if you could take another look. Thank you!
Hello,
I am quite swamped with work for the next two weeks, hence I will review it after that. Sorry for the delay
Regards Vipin
