sd.fitter.commit - Function

5.1.4 Return a new scan where the fits have been subtracted
Description

Return a new scan where the fits have been subtracted. You must fit the data before you execute this method. Otherwise, an exception will be thrown.

If the data is set as a set of abcissa and ordinate values using set_data, it will not work. If you want to get data by this method, you must use set_scan that set the data as a scantable.

Arguments

Returns
scantable

Example

   f=sd.fitter()  
   s=sd.scantable(’OrionS_rawACSmod_cal’,average=False)  
   # you must set data as a scantable  
   f.set_scan(s)  
   # set polynomial function of order 3 for baseline subtraction  
   f.set_function(poly=3)  
   # do fit  
   f.fit()  
   # get baseline subtracted scans  
   s_bs=f.commit()
