Synopsis
Plot the fit results, and the residuals, for a data set.
Syntax
plot_fit_delchi(id=None, replot=False, overplot=False, clearwindow=True, **kwargs) id - int or str, optional replot - bool, optional overplot - bool, optional clearwindow - bool, optional
Description
This creates two plots - the first from `plot_fit` and the second from `plot_delchi` - for a data set.
Examples
Example 1
Plot the results for the default data set:
>>> plot_fit_delchi()
Example 2
Overplot the 'core' results on those from the 'jet' data set, using a logarithmic scale for the X axis:
>>> set_xlog()
>>> plot_fit_delchi('jet')
>>> plot_fit_delchi('core', overplot=True)Example 3
Additional arguments can be given that are passed to the plot backend: the supported arguments match the keywords of the dictionary returned by `get_data_plot_prefs` . The following sets the error bars to be drawn in gray when using the Matplotlib backend:
>>> plot_fit_delchi(ecolor='gray')
PARAMETERS
The parameters for this function are:
| Parameter | Definition |
|---|---|
| id | The data set. If not given then the default identifier is used, as returned by `get_default_id` . |
| replot | Set to True to use the values calculated by the last call to `plot_fit_delchi` . The default is False . |
| overplot | If True then add the data to an existing plot, otherwise create a new plot. The default is False . |
| clearwindow | Should the existing plot area be cleared before creating this new plot (e.g. for multi-panel plots)? |
Notes
The additional arguments supported by `plot_fit_delchi` are the same as the keywords of the dictionary returned by `get_data_plot_prefs` , and are applied to both plots.
For the delchi plot, the ylog setting is ignored, and the Y axis is drawn using a linear scale.
Changes in CIAO
Changed in CIAO 4.13
The overplot option now works.
Changed in CIAO 4.12
The Y axis of the delchi plot is now always drawn using a linear scale.
