eqv demo = demo.txt This is not intended to be a final version of the eqv demonstration library but perhaps it will get you started with this routine. Place the eqv demo files in a subdirectory and cd to it. Get into IDL and do eqv_demo. Note on the Hardcopy button: the hardcopy button assumes that you are using the routine psinit (part of the jhu/apl library) to redirect PostScript graphics to a printer. This button will not work if you don't have psinit working correctly. The file idl_psprinters.doc in the idldoc library describes how to set up psinit. Parabola -------- After moving a, b, and c add to the equation +sin(d*x) Try Cursor Zoom Number of points Colors Gaussian Curve -------------- Move amp, mu, sigma. Add + a*sin(b*x) Set plot Y min Change to +sin(b*x+a) Gaussian Curve fit demo ----------------------- Colors Fit Y Axis: log Plot symbols Bjerkaas-Riedal Spectral Model ------------------------------ Not included because the routine that computes the model is too specialized and requires a call_external. However this missing file demonstrates how such errors are handled. Polar Curve ----------- Polar Curve #2 -------------- Vary parameters Lissajous patterns ------------------ Follow discussian button Plot type: XY Drop +5 from x and y.
