Table of Contents
| 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’] |
| EvaluationType | Input | string | CentrePoint | The way the function is evaluated on histogram data sets. If value is “CentrePoint” then function is evaluated at centre of each bin. If it is “Histogram” then function is integrated within the bin and the integrals returned. Allowed values: [‘CentrePoint’, ‘Histogram’] |
| PeakRadius | Input | number | 0 | A value of the peak radius the peak functions should use. A peak radius defines an interval on the x axis around the centre of the peak where its values are calculated. Values outside the interval are not calculated and assumed zeros.Numerically the radius is a whole number of peak widths (FWHM) that fit into the interval on each side from the centre. The default value of 0 means the whole x axis. |
| OutputWorkspace | Output | Workspace | Mandatory | An output workspace. |
The algorithm will use the axes of the input workspace to evaluate a functions on them and store the result in the output workspace.
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')
