8.3.3.1 Data Selection

In addition to the basic data selection above, data can be selected based on IF, beam, polarization, scan number as well as values such as Tsys. To make a selection create a selector object choose among various selection functions, e.g.,

  sel = sd.selector()      # initialize a selector object
                           # sel.<TAB> will list all options
  sel.set_ifs(0)           # select only the first IF of the data
  scans.set_selection(sel) # apply the selection to the data
  print scans              # shows just the first IF
