Similarly, the command line:

The script will report the results both in the standard output (more elaborated) and in a log file. For example, the last command will produce a log file containing:

(Note that small numerical variations with respect to the original papers might occur due to different software versions and as a result from any stochastic underlying process. Those changes should anyway not alter the conclusions derived from the published results.)
