On each line, the 1st value is the index from 1 to N, the 2nd value is the bond length r (in distance units), the 3rd value is the energy (in energy units), and the 4th is the force (in force units). The bond -lengths must increase from one line to the next. +lengths must range from a LO value to a HI value, and increase from +one line to the next. If the actual bond length is ever smaller than +the LO value or larger than the HI value, then the bond energy and +force is evaluated as if the bond were the LO or HI length.
