Direct sampling support

[hz-xiaxz]

Hello! This is quite a nice package!
I'm a student working on a project using direct sampling method to simulated Fermion system, so it is different from the MCMC framework. But I'm still interested in the MPI frame and the job arrangement system this package. Will it be possible for me to take advantage of this package by e.g. set thermalization=0 and use the MPI frame and autocorrelation caculation? I'll be appreciate if any guidance could be given.
Or is there existing package that support parallel caculation of direct sampling problem?

If you are interested, maybe we can work on a PR to add this feature

Hi, apologies for the late reply!

In a still unpublished code, I am actually using Carlo as the framework to simulate Fermion systems using the Auxiliary-field quantum Monte Carlo method myself. That method is also not MCMC, but a one-sided projection/random walk.

Basically, Carlo gives you a way to process random numbers in parallel. If your method has no thermalization time, you can set thermalization to zero and it should work. If there are additional features you need, we can talk further :)

Thanks, setting thermalization to zero works all well for my code!
