For each analysis, a commented c++ code is available for download, provided together with information on the analysis and references to relevant publications. A careful validation of each implementation is also provided.

-will create and modify all necessary files for adding the analysis named cms_sus_13_011. In particular, a pair of header and source c++ files cms_sus_13_011.cpp and cms_sus_13_011.h are now available in the subdirectory !Build/SampleAnalyzer/User/Analyzer. These files must be replaced by those available for download in the database (see list below). A more convenient library mode to install several analyses at once is in preparation.

+After execution of an analysis, exclusion under the CLs prescription can be computed with the Python code [http://madanalysis.irmp.ucl.ac.be/attachment/wiki/PhysicsAnalysisDatabase/exclusion_CLs.py exclusion_CLs.py] It requires [http://www.scipy.org/ SciPy] to be installed.
+The path to the working directory of interest has to be provided in the variable analysis_path in the beginning of the code. The limit-setting code can also be obtained with the command
+{{{
+ install RecastingTools
+}}}
+within !MadAnalysis 5. This will create a local copy of [http://madanalysis.irmp.ucl.ac.be/attachment/wiki/PhysicsAnalysisDatabase/exclusion_CLs.py exclusion_CLs.py] in every new working directory.
+In both cases, the code should be called as
+{{{
+ ./exclusion_CLs.py analysis_name mypoint.txt [run_number] [cross section in pb]
+}}}
+The exclusion results will be printed on the screen and in an output file located in the directory mypoint.txt/ of the output of the analysis.
 
 ''We strongly encourage users to publish their re-implemented LHC analyses via Inspire.'' This way they not only become part of the public database, rendering them as useful as possible to the community, but they also become individually searchable and citable.
