contour_model

sherpa.astro.ui.contour_model(id=None, **kwargs)

Contour the values of the model, including any PSF.

Parameters:
  • id (int or str, optional) – The data set that provides the model. If not given then the default identifier is used, as returned by get_default_id.
  • replot (bool, optional) – Set to True to use the values calculated by the last call to contour_model. The default is False.
  • overcontour (bool, optional) – If True then add the data to an exsiting plot, otherwise create a new contour plot. The default is False.

Examples

Plot the model from the default data set:

Compare the model without and with the PSF component, for the “img” data set:

>>> contour_source("img")
>>> contour_model("img", overcontour=True)
