astropy 5.0

Parameters
scale(self, type=None, option='old', bscale=1, bzero=0)

Calling this method will scale self.data and update the keywords of BSCALE and BZERO in self._header and self._image_header . This method should only be used right before writing to the output file, as the data will be scaled and is therefore not very usable after the call.

Parameters

type : str, optional

destination data type, use a string representing a numpy dtype name, (e.g. 'uint8' , 'int16' , 'float32' etc.). If is :None:None:`None`, use the current data type.

option : str, optional

how to scale the data: if "old" , use the original BSCALE and BZERO values when the data was read/created. If "minmax" , use the minimum and maximum of the data to scale. The option will be overwritten by any user-specified bscale/bzero values.

bscale, bzero : int, optional

user specified BSCALE and BZERO values.

Scale image data by using BSCALE and BZERO .

Examples

See :

Local connectivity graph

Hover to see nodes names; edges to Self not shown, Caped at 50 nodes.

Using a canvas is more power efficient and can get hundred of nodes ; but does not allow hyperlinks; , arrows or text (beyond on hover)

SVG is more flexible but power hungry; and does not scale well to 50 + nodes.

All aboves nodes referred to, (or are referred from) current nodes; Edges from Self to other have been omitted (or all nodes would be connected to the central node "self" which is not useful). Nodes are colored by the library they belong to, and scaled with the number of references pointing them
