A study is reproducible if you can take the original data and the computer code used
to analyze the data and reproduce all of the numerical findings from the study.

Authors must make available upon request, to editors and reviewers, any previously
unreported custom computer code or algorithm used to generate results that are
reported in the paper and central to its main claims. Any reason that would
preclude the need for code or algorithm sharing will be evaluated by the editors who
reserve the right to decline the paper if important code is unavailable.
