General accuracy parameter

Accuracy

General precision parameter. Default value = 3.5, which is a bit low. For your final calculation in general a value of 4.5 is advised. Higher values (larger than 4.5) should only be necessary in extreme cases. The tell-tale sign of a too low value is that a binding curve becomes bumpy. Values below 3.0 produce unreliable results, due to the limited precision in integrals.
Accuracy plays in fact the role of a very general accuracy parameter. It determines not only the generation of integration points (it is the default of the AccInt key for the integration scheme), but also the (default) values of many other parameters and settings that are related to the accuracy of the results.
