Now I want to systematically vary some of these parameters using a Monte Carlo approach. The easiest way to do this would be to just create a small addendum to the dat file that redefines / overrides the parameter values that were previously defined in the dat file, and to paste these two together. Unfortunately, that doesn't work, the solver just complains that a parameter was already defined.

Include parameters Xnormal and Xadjust along with parameter X.
Read in Xnormal and Xadjust instead of X.
Have X computed from Xnormal and Xadjust.
