Hi Cody,

Yes, paramfit does sort the energies in descending order when outputting
the energy file. If you want to compare the initial and final energies, set
the max steps of the algorithm to zero and tell it to print the energies to
get the initial values. You can compare that to the energies printed after
the algorithm completes in a normal fitting run if you wish to look at how
much the fit improved.

Hope this helps,
Robin Betz
