Summary¶

Properties¶
Name |
Direction |
Type |
Default |
Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
LHSWorkspace |
Input |
Mandatory |
The name of the input workspace on the left hand side of the operation |
|
RHSWorkspace |
Input |
Mandatory |
The name of the input workspace on the right hand side of the operation |
|
OutputWorkspace |
Output |
Mandatory |
The name to call the output workspace |
|
AllowDifferentNumberSpectra |
Input |
boolean |
False |
Are workspaces with different number of spectra allowed? For example, the LHSWorkspace might have one spectrum per detector, but the RHSWorkspace could have its spectra averaged per bank. If true, then matching between the LHS and RHS spectra is performed (all detectors in a LHS spectrum have to be in the corresponding RHS) in order to apply the RHS spectrum to the LHS. |
ClearRHSWorkspace |
Input |
boolean |
False |
For EventWorkspaces only. This will clear out event lists from the RHS workspace as the binary operation is applied. This can prevent excessive memory use, e.g. when subtracting an EventWorkspace from another: memory use will be approximately constant instead of increasing by 50%. At completion, the RHS workspace will be empty. |
WarnOnZeroDivide |
Input |
boolean |
True |
Algorithm usually warns if division by 0 occurs. Set this value to false if one does not want this message appearing |
Description¶
OutputWorkspace = LHSWorkspace / RHSWorkspace
The algorithm will perform the / operation on the data and associated errors from any two compatible workspaces. Workspaces are compatible if:
The sizes of the two workspaces are compatible (see below)
If the two workspaces contain Y bins then the values in these must be identical
the units of the axes match
the distribution status/counts units match
For information about how errors are handled and propagated see Error Propagation.
Compatible Sizes¶
Workspaces are compatible if they are identically sized in which case the values of each cell within each histogram are divided individually. The green arrows shows the order in which the data is divided. |
|
They are also compatible if they match the size dimension horizontally, in which case the same values are divided by each histogram in the workspace. |
|
If AllowDifferentNumberSpectra is True, then the LHS and RHS spectra are matched using detector IDs. The corresponding spectra are divided by the matching counterpart. |
|
If they match in size vertically then the data values will be divided by each bin of the histogram. |
|
Finally a workspace containing a single value is compatible to any workspace, in which case the same value will be divided uniformly by every bin in each histogram.

The histogram representation of the RHS EventWorkspace is used as the right-hand operand. The number of bins DO need to match for both operands. |
EventWorkspace |

EventWorkspace |
= |
EventWorkspace |
The histogram representation of the RHS EventWorkspace is used as the right-hand operand. The number of bins DO NOT need to match for both operands. The output EventWorkspace will use WeightedEvents, where each event’s weight will have been divided by the Y value at the corresponding X bin on the RHS. |

EventWorkspace |
The histogram representation of the RHS EventWorkspace is used as the right-hand operand. The number of bins DO NOT need to match for both operands. |
EventWorkspace |

WorkspaceSingleValue |
= |
EventWorkspace |
The value (and error) is applied to the weight of every event in the workspace. The output EventWorkspace will use WeightedEvents. If Output–LHS, then the operation is performed in-place and no copying of workspaces is done. |
Usage¶
Example - Divide as an Algorithm
# create histogram workspaces
dataX1 = [0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9] # or use dataX1=range(0,10)
dataY1 = [0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8] # or use dataY1=range(0,9)
dataE1 = [0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8] # or use dataE1=range(0,9)
dataX2 = [0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9] #X-values must be identical
dataY2 = [2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2]
dataE2 = [3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3]
ws1 = CreateWorkspace(dataX1, dataY1, dataE1)
ws2 = CreateWorkspace(dataX2, dataY2, dataE2)
# perform the algorithm
ws = Divide(ws1, ws2)
print("The X values are: " + str(ws.readX(0)))
print("The Y values are: " + str(ws.readY(0)))
print("The updated Error values are: " + str(ws.readE(0)))
