NAME: COMFITGRAF PURPOSE: This routine packages the IDL gradient-expansion least square fit COMFIT function to fit the paired data {x(i), y(i)}. Then calls PLOT1D to graph the calculated results with the raw data in a pop-up window. CATEGORY: Curve fitting with plot. CALLING SEQUENCE: COMFITGRAF, X, Y [,A] [,YFIT] [,SIGMA] ,/FIT_TYPE [,/PRINT] [,/TEST] INPUTS: X: Position X vector of type integer, float or double.

NAME: CURVEFITGRAF PURPOSE: Then calls PLOT1D to graph the calculated results with the raw data in a pop-up window. CATEGORY: Curve fitting with plot. CALLING SEQUENCE: CURVEFITGRAF,X,Y,Weights [,A ] [,Sigma] [,/PRINT] $ [,FUNCTION_NAME='funct'] $ [,/NODERIVATIVE] [,ITMAX=20] [,TOL=1.e-3] INPUTS: X: Position X vector Y: Data value Y vector Weights: A row vector of weights, the same length as Y. Defaults to 1. Instrumental weighting-Gaussian : Weights(i) = 1./sigma(i) ^2 Statistical weighting-Poisson : Weights(i) = 1./y(i) A: The coefficients of the fit. The number of elements in A must be exactly the same as that defined in the function_name. If not specified, the fitting function should provide the initial default. KEYWORD PARAMETERS: PRINT: Specifies whether the output window will be poped up. FUNCTION_NAME: The name of the procedure function to fit. If omitted, NODERIVATIVE: If this keyword is set then the partial derivatives will be calculated by CURVEFIT by forward differences. Otherwise the procedure function should provide the partial derivatives calculation. Defaults nodevivative is not set. The procedure function must be written as in 'FUNCT' as described in IDL 'CURVEFIT' restrictions. ITMAX: Maximum number of iterations. Default = 20. TOL: The convergence tolerance. Default = 1.e-3. The routine returns when the relative decrease in chi-squared is less than TOL. OPTIONAL OUTPUTS: A: Returns the coefficients of the fit. Sigma: A vector of standard deviations for the parameters in A. RESTRICTIONS: The function to be fit must be defined and called FUNCT, unless the FUNCTION_NAME keyword is supplied. This function, (actually written as a procedure) must accept values of X (the independent variable), and A (the fitted function's parameter values), and return F (the function's value at X), and PDER (a 2D array of partial derivatives). For an example, see FUNCT in the IDL User's Libaray. A call to FUNCT is entered as: FUNCT, X, A, F, PDER where: X = Variable passed into CURVEFIT. It is the job of the user-written function to interpret this variable. A = Vector of NTERMS function parameters, input. F = Vector of NPOINT values of function, y(i) = funct(x), output. PDER = Array, (NPOINT, NTERMS), of partial derivatives of funct. PDER(I,J) = DErivative of function at ith point with respect to jth parameter. Optional output parameter. PDER should not be calculated if the parameter is not supplied in call. If the /NODERIVATIVE keyword is set in the call to CURVEFIT then the user routine will never need to calculate PDER. PROCEDURE: Before accessing this routine, the 'ez_fit.pro' must be loaded into IDL and the path to 'ez_fit.pro' must be in the IDL search path.

It is a standalone widget application. It can be easily plug into any other IDL program. It accepts 1D or 2D arrays either from the input binary file or directly from the command line. It also accepts the spreadsheet column type ascii input file. It allows the user to select any vector from the input data and perform any fitting he/she desires. It lets the user easily get the hardcopy of fitting graph and tabulated data. CATEGORY: Curve fitting Widgets application. CALLING SEQUENCE: EZ_FIT KEYWORD PARAMETERS: XARRAY: Specifies the independent varialbe X vector if input to be entered from the command line. YARRAY: Specifies the dependent varialbe Y array if input to be entered from the command line. It is used by 1D or 2D data. For 2D image data, the YARRAY represents the Y vector of the second dimension. For 1D data, multiple data vectors can be packed into Y array. The Y(N,M), the N must have the same dimension as in X vector. the M represents the number of dependent variables in Y array. A user can use the cursor in the image area to select the dependent variable to be fitted, or use the J text field to specify the dependent variable to be fitted.. IM: Specifies the 2D image array corresponding to XARRAY and YARRAY. IMAGE(N,M), where dimenstion N is the same as the number of elements in XARRAY, M is the same as the number of elements in YARRAY.

INPATH: Specifies the initial search path GROUP: The widget ID of the group leader of the widget. If this keyword is specified, the death of the group leader results in the death of EZ_FIT. OUTPUTS: Pops up plot and list window to show fitting results with respect to the input data. COMMON BLOCKS: COMMON EZ_FIT_BLOCK,ezfitData,image SIDE EFFECTS: It uses the PLOT1D and XDISPLAYFILE program to show the fitting results. RESTRICTIONS: Input binary file must be created by the U_OPERW and U_WRITE rountines. The input data is in platform independent XDR binary format. Default input file filter for 1D data is '*.bin1d', the default input file filter for 2D data is '*.bin'. User may override this default setting in the file selection dialog. Input 1D file should contains only two binary objects XARRAY and YARRAY. Input 2D file should contains only 3 binary objects XARRAY YARRAY and IMAGE. Input ASCII type file should contain columns of input data. It uses the W_READASCII to read in columns of data. The first column will be independent variable, the remaining columns will be dependent variables. EXAMPLE: Example 1 - Use the File->Open to load input data EZ_FIT Example 2 - Use the X,Y keywords to load 1D data EZ_FIT,XARRAY=X, YARRAY=Y Example 3 - Use the keywords to load 2D data EZ_FIT,XARRAY=X, YARRAY=Y, IM=image MODIFICATION HISTORY: Written by: Ben-chin K.
