  1. In each of the 1000 simulation runs, LRC and mLRC were categorized in 6 groups (using 0.1,0.2,0.3,0.4 and 0.5 as cut-offs) and median family size in each group was calculated. As a summary over the 1000 simulation runs, we provide median and range (in brackets) of these values. The left column reports results based on LRC and the right column reports results based on mLRC
