distl.uniform_around (function)
def uniform_around(width, value=None, unit=None, label=None, label_latex=None, wrap_at=None)
Create a Uniform_Around object which, when called, will resolve to a Uniform object around a given central value.
Arguments
width
(float): the width of the resulting Uniform object (Uniform.low and Uniform.high will be set based on the current value andwidth
).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 iflabel_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 andunit
are angles, will default to 2*pi (or 360 degrees). If None andunit
are cycles, will default to 1.0.
Returns
- a Uniform_Around object.
