Summary ¶

Evaluate a function on a workspace.

Properties ¶

Name	Direction	Type	Default	Description
Function	InOut	Function	Mandatory	Parameters defining the fitting function and its initial values
InputWorkspace	Input	Workspace	Mandatory	Name of the input Workspace
IgnoreInvalidData	Input	boolean	False	Flag to ignore infinities, NaNs and data with zero errors.
DomainType	Input	string	Simple	The type of function domain to use: Simple, Sequential, or Parallel. Allowed values: [‘Simple’, ‘Sequential’, ‘Parallel’]
OutputWorkspace	Output	Workspace	Mandatory	An output workspace.

Description ¶

The algorithm will use the axes of the input workspace to evaluate a functions on them and store the result in the output workspace.

Usage ¶

Example - 1D function and a matrix workspace.

# Load a workspace
ws = Load('MUSR00015189')
# Evaluate a function
EvaluateFunction('name=ExpDecay,Height=56', 'ws_1', StartX=0, EndX=30, OutputWorkspace='out')

Example - 2D function and a MD workspace.

# Create an empty 2D workspace (100 x 100)
nx = 100
ny = 100
ws = CreateMDHistoWorkspace(Dimensionality=2, Extents=[-10,10,-10,10], Names="x,y", Units="U,V",
    NumberOfBins='%s,%s' % (nx,ny),
    SignalInput=[0] * nx * ny, ErrorInput=[0] * nx * ny)
# Evaluate a function
EvaluateFunction('name=UserFunctionMD,Formula=sin(x)*sin(y)','ws', OutputWorkspace='out')
