distl.delta_around (function)


def delta_around(value=None, unit=None, label=None, label_latex=None, wrap_at=None)

Create a Delta_Around object which, when called, will resolve to a Delta object around a given central value.

Arguments

  • value (float, optional, default=None): the current face-value.
  • unit (astropy.units object, optional): the units of the provided values.
  • label (string, optional): a label for the distribution. This is used for the x-label while plotting the distribution if label_latex is not provided, as well as a shorthand notation when creating a Composite distribution.
  • label_latex (string, optional): a latex label for the distribution. This is used for the x-label while plotting.
  • wrap_at (float, None, or False, optional, default=None): value to use for wrapping. If None and unit are angles, will default to 2*pi (or 360 degrees). If None and unit are cycles, will default to 1.0.
