Synopsis
Load the grouping scheme from a file and add to a PHA data set.
Syntax
load_grouping(id, filename=None, bkg_id=None, *args, **kwargs) id - int or str, optional filename - str bkg_id - int or str, optional colkeys - array of str, optional sep - str, optional comment - str, optional
Description
This function sets the grouping column but does not automatically group the data, since the quality array may also need updating. The `group` function will apply the grouping information.
Examples
Example 1
When using Crates as the I/O library, select the grouping column from the file 'src.pi', and use it to set the values in the default data set:
>>> load_grouping('src.pi[cols grouping]')
Example 2
Use the colkeys option to define the column in the input file:
>>> load_grouping('src.pi', colkeys=['grouping'])
Example 3
Load the first column in 'grp.dat' and use it to populate the grouping array of the data set called 'core'.
>>> load_grouping('core', 'grp.dat')
Example 4
Use `group_counts` to calculate a grouping scheme for the data set labelled 'src1', save this scheme to the file 'grp.dat', and then load this scheme in for data set 'src2'.
>>> group_counts('src1', 10) >>> save_grouping('src1', 'grp.dat') >>> load_grouping('src2', 'grp.dat', colkeys=['groups'])
PARAMETERS
The parameters for this function are:
Parameter | Definition |
---|---|
id | The identifier for the data set to use. If not given then the default identifier is used, as returned by `get_default_id` . |
filename | The name of the file that contains the grouping information. This file can be a FITS table or an ASCII file. Selection of the relevant column depends on the I/O library in use (Crates or AstroPy). |
bkg_id | Set if the grouping scheme should be associated with the background associated with the data set. |
colkeys | An array of the column name to read in. The default is none . |
sep | The separator character. The default is ' ' . |
comment | The comment character. The default is '#' . |
Notes
The function does not follow the normal Python standards for parameter use, since it is designed for easy interactive use. When called with a single un-named argument, it is taken to be the `filename` parameter. If given two un-named arguments, then they are interpreted as the `id` and `filename` parameters, respectively. The remaining parameters are expected to be given as named arguments.
There is no check made to see if the grouping array contains valid data.
