## Other Fields

Some read-only fields can be of interest while debugging your simulations. These fields are availabe after a successful `SETUP`, but must never be changed.

1. `symflag`: the `symflag` can be inspected to see if `hsolve` is computing symmetric compartments.
2. `ncompts`: the number of compartments that are in the model that `hsolve` is computing.
3. `nchildren`: this array contains the number of intracellular mechanisms in the model.
4. `nelm_names`: Element names can be shared for different elements with the same name. This field is a count on the number of different element names in the model.
5. `ntab`: The number of distinctive tables in the model.
6. `dt`: The value of the simulation clock that `hsolve` uses to do its computations.

NOTE: The `comptmode` field is not used anymore, but it is still there for backward compatibility. The Genesis documentation has not been updated yet.
