MDHistoWorkspaces¶

• MDHistoWorkspace + MDHistoWorkspace
  • The operation is performed element-by-element.
• MDHistoWorkspace + Scalar or Scalar + MDHistoWorkspace
  • The scalar is subtracted from every element of the MDHistoWorkspace. The squares of errors are summed.

MDEventWorkspaces¶

This algorithm operates similarly to calling Plus on two EventWorkspaces: it combines the events from the two workspaces together to form one large workspace.

Note for file-backed workspaces¶

The algorithm uses CloneMDWorkspace v1 to create the output workspace, except when adding in place (e.g. ). See CloneMDWorkspace v1 for details, but note that a file-backed MDEventWorkspace will have its file copied.

• If A is in memory and B is file-backed, the operation will clone the B file-backed workspace and add A to it.
• However, the operation will clone the A workspace and add B into memory (which might be too big!)

Also, be aware that events added to a MDEventWorkspace are currently added in memory and are not cached to file until SaveMD v2 or another algorithm requiring it is called. The workspace is marked as ‘requiring file update’.
