| 1724 | + `KhoHo <https://github.com/AShumakovitch/KhoHo>`__. They are no longer |
| 1725 | + visible on the website as of October 30, 2022. Instead, data |
| 1726 | + computed with `KnotJob <https://www.maths.dur.ac.uk/users/dirk.schuetz/knotjob.html>`__ |
| 1727 | + are now displayed. The latter program is more accurate in terms of |
| 1728 | + orientation and reflection as it is based on ``PD`` code. |

|
| 1730 | + Even if they are not visible on the website, the data produced by |
| 1731 | + ``KhoHo`` are still available in the database. But maybe this will be |
| 1732 | + discontinued (check out the `Python wrapper <https://github.com/soehms/database_knotinfo#readme>`__ for updated information). |
| 1733 | + This interface will be adapted to the changes in an upcoming |

|
| 1736 | + Since the results of ``KhoHo`` were computed using the ``DT`` notation, |
| 1737 | + the Khovanov polynomial returned by this method belongs to the |
| 1738 | + mirror image of the given knot for a `list of 140 exceptions |
