Input Validation: Enforce totals match

Open ghost opened this issue 3 months ago • 0 comments

For the input control file, if the sum of HH {category} is not equal to the total of HH, then the program can run through without a warning or error flag. And the final synthetic results are different from the correct ones. In the test, I purposely edited HHSIZE1 to make the sum of HHSIZEs not equal to HHBASE. Then the model ran through without an error warning or message, but processed directly. In the final synthetic households, there are many discrepancies.
