SynopsisLoad PHA data by id Syntaxload_pha( [id=1], filename, [use_errors=True] ) load_pha( [id=1], PHACrate, [use_errors=True] ) load_pha( [id=1], PyFITS HDUList, [use_errors=True] ) DescriptionLoad a PHA type I or type II file containing given a filename and path, or an PHACrate object, or a PyFITS HDUList object into a data set by data set ID. Example
sherpa> load_pha("pha.fits")
sherpa> load_pha(2, "pha.fits", use_errors=True)
sherpa> load_pha("bkg", "bkg.fits", True)
sherpa> load_pha(crate)
sherpa> load_pha(hdulist)The load_pha function can be called with just a filename and path argument, in which case the default id and use_errors equals false will be used. If header keywords for the associated background, ARF, or RMF are found. They will be read in as well. A PHA type II file will produce a individual data set for each spectrum. The generated identifiers for each spectrum's data set can be shown with 'list_data_ids'. Data set IDs can be integers or strings; in the latter case a string can denote useful information about the data (e.g., whether it is your source or background data set).
