regul weights as reported in rei file

[jknightusgs]

this is more of a question than an issue:

I ran the same pest control file using pest++ and pest14.02. (Freyberg_pp_reg.pst from class).

In pest++, the weights listed in the rei file for regularization obs (i.e. log(hk1_1) - log(hk1_2) = 0) are square roots of the weights listed in the pst file and rec file.

In pest 14.02, the weights are identical in the various input/output files. Why the difference in pest++?

I noticed this because after running the calibration in pest++, a dataframe produced from the rei file showed a regul component of PHI that was much larger than what I saw in the end-of-run info on the command prompt.

Hey Jake - I can confirm that the prior information equation weights in the residuals file is the sqrt of what is in the control file. Not sure what the origin of that is, but, as of v4.2.2 in my fork of pest++ (https://github.com/jtwhite79/pestpp), this has been changed so that the reporting is consistent with pest(_hp).

thanks Jeremy. I wasn't aware of the fork on your account, so I'm glad I asked. The user manual I found there is a game changer! Much appreciation for all the work you put into that.

I can't take credit for that manual - its was mostly hard work from @doherty1234
