Synopsis
Contour the fit to a data set.
Syntax
contour_fit(id=None, replot=False, overcontour=False, **kwargs)
Description
Overplot the model - including any PSF - on the data. The preferences are the same as `contour_data` and `contour_model` .
Examples
Example 1
Plot the fit for the default data set:
>>> contour_fit()
Example 2
Overplot the fit to data set 's2' on that of the default data set:
>>> contour_fit()
>>> contour_fit('s2', overcontour=True)PARAMETERS
The parameters for this function are:
| Parameter | Type information | Definition |
|---|---|---|
| id | int, str, or None, optional | The data set that provides the data and model. If not given then the default identifier is used, as returned by `get_default_id` . |
| replot | bool, optional | Set to True to use the values calculated by the last call to `contour_fit` . The default is False . |
| overcontour | bool, optional | If True then add the data to an existing plot, otherwise create a new contour plot. The default is False . |
