Practical calcultations of reactors use either deterministic or Monte Carlo codes. The deterministic codes are the most used for critical reactors calculations, while, on the contrary, Monte Carlo methods are almost exclusively used for Hybrid reactors. Since our emphasis is on the latest, we only give a very short reminder of the deterministic methods
