This is the documentation for PyDL.
Most of the functionality of PyDL is in sub-packages.
Python replacements for functions that are part of the IDL built-in library, or part of astronomical IDL libraries. The emphasis is on reproducing results of the astronomical library functions. Only the bare minimum of IDL built-in functions are implemented to support this.
| file_lines(path[, compress]) | Replicates the IDL FILE_LINES() function. |
| median(array[, width, axis, even]) | Replicate the IDL MEDIAN() function. |
| rebin(x, d[, sample]) | Resize x to new dimensions given by d. |
| smooth(signal, owidth[, edge_truncate]) | Replicates the IDL SMOOTH() function. |
| uniq(x[, index]) | Replicates the IDL UNIQ() function. |
| pcomp(x[, standardize, covariance]) | Replicates the IDL PCOMP() function. |
| PydlException | Base class for exceptions raised in PyDL functions. |
