Shape

The shape of the function.

If this is not a photon model but a prior or linear function then ignore the units as these docs are auto-generated

[6]:
fig, ax = plt.subplots()


ax.plot(energy_grid, func(energy_grid), color=blue, lw=3)

ax.set_xlabel("x")
ax.set_ylabel("probability")

Random Number Generation

This is how we can generate random numbers from the prior.

[7]:


u = np.random.uniform(0,1, size=5000) draws = [func.from_unit_cube(x) for x in u] fig, ax = plt.subplots() ax.hist(draws, color=green, bins=50) ax.set_xlabel("value") ax.set_ylabel("N")
