Recover the estimate

Synopsis
getestimate()

Returns
Glish record

Description

When you are fitting individual profiles, this returns the current estimate into a record. If you are fitting many profiles in a region this function returns an empty record.

Field 'elements' holds the parameters of each component. Thus the length of field 'elements' is the number of components you fit. Its subfields are self-explanatory when you look at it.

Field 'xunit' gives the abcissa unit. Field 'xabs' says whether the x-values are absolute or relative (to reference pixel). Field 'yunit' gives the ordinate unit. Field 'doppler' gives the doppler type if the profile axis is spectral.

Example

- pf := imageprofilefitter(infile='ngc1313.cube')
- est := pf.getestimate()
