+# **Characteristic/s to be optimized**
+
+This option can be used to specify the characteristics to be optimized. The characteristics are represented by an Integer number as shown in the table below:
+
+| **Representative Integer number** | **Characteristic Parameter**|
+| :---: | :---: |
+| 0 | grain_size_distribution | 
+| 1 | number_of_neighbors | 
+| 2 | grain_boundary_areas | 
+| 3 | junction_length | 
+| 4 | junction_angle | 
+| 5 | distance_btw_grains | 
+| 6 | disorientation_angles | 
+| 7 | type_of_grain_boundary | 
+| 8 | schmid_factor | 
+
+For example, `--c 0`
+
+In the above example, grain size distribution will be optimized.
+
+The package is capable of optimizing multiple characteristics at a time. For optimizing multiple characteristics, following example can be followed:
+
+`--c 0 --c 6 --c 5`
+
+In the above shown example, grain size distribution, disorientation angles and distance between grains would be optimized. 
+
+**Please note that it is mandatory to follow the sequence in which the blocks for respective target distribution are specified. In this case grain size distribution then disorientation angle followed by distance between grains.**
