QDEDXM or not QDEDXM ? ( Obsolete ! Kept only for backward-compatibility).

$\fbox {LOGICAL FUNCTION CHTSIM(IVERS)}$

Function defined only for MCarlo datasets .

Since the release of TPCSIM version 216 in December 1993 , it is much better to use QDEDX for MCarlo data as well as for real data . The logical function CHTSIM is .TRUE. if the Monte-Carlo dataset currently read has been produced with a version of TPCSIM , IVERS , which allows to use QDEDX . If CHTSIM is .FALSE. , one has to use QDEDXM .

CHTSIM needs to be called only once for a given Monte-Carlo run .

Output argument:

IVERS: The TPCSIM version number for the current dataset .
