apply_transform

Context: py.transform

Synopsis

Apply a transform to the given data.

Syntax

apply_transform(transform, data)

Description

  • transform - input Transform object
  • data - data to be transformed

The apply_transform command applies the transform to the provided data. The resulting transformed data are returned. It is assumed that the data is appropriate for the transform definition.

Example

>>> cr = read_file("evt2.fits")
>>> trans = get_transform(cr, "MSC")
>>> data = numpy.array( [[4000.0,
4000.0],[5000.0,5000.0]],dtype=numpy.double)
>>> odat = apply_transform(trans,data)
>>> print odat
[[ 3.59986812e+02 -1.31883328e-02]
[ 1.23478142e-01 1.23477855e-01]]

The "MSC" transform from evt2.fits is applied to the values (4000,4000) and (5000,5000).
