'''Helper functions for plotting
This module contains a few helper functions for reformatting arrays in ways
that facilitate easier plotting.
'''
import numpy as np
__all__ = ('intersperse', 'histogram_line')
[docs]def intersperse(a, b):
'''Interleave two arrays a and b
Parameters
----------
a, b : array
Two arrys to interleave. The numbe of elements in the two arrays cannot
differ by more than one.
Returns
-------
out : array
array that interleaves the input arrays
Example
-------
>>> import numpy as np
>>> a = np.arange(5)
>>> b = np.arange(10, 14)
>>> intersperse(a, b)
array([ 0, 10, 1, 11, 2, 12, 3, 13, 4])
Notes
-----
See https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5347065/interweaving-two-numpy-arrays#5347492
for interleaving arrays.
'''
out = np.empty((a.size + b.size, ), dtype=a.dtype)
out[0::2] = a
out[1::2] = b
return out
[docs]def histogram_line(xlo, xhi, y):
'''Manually create x, y arrays for draw histrogram line
Draw the data as a histogram, manually creating the lines
from the low to high edge of each bin. In the case on non-consequtive
bins, the line will have some nan values, so that disjoint lines are
drawn.
In matplotlib, an alternative would be to create RectanglePatches,
one for each bin, but I don't want each bin to go down to 0. I do
not find the existing drawstyle options to be sufficient.
Parameters
----------
xlo, xhi : array
Lower and upper bin boundaries. Typically, ``xlo`` will contain the
lower boundary and ``xhi`` the upper boundary, but this function can
deal with situations where that is reversed. Both arrays have to be
monotonically increasing or decreasing.
y : array
Dependent values for each histrogram bin_hi
Returns
-------
x, y2 : array
x and y arrays for plotting the histogram line.
'''

# to wavelength, or if input PHA is not ordered in increasing energy.
# But if both are happening at the same time, need to switch twice, which
# is a no-op. So, we get to use the elusive Python XOR operator.
