Wtbarr

class astropy.wcs.Wtbarr

Bases: object

Classes to construct coordinate lookup tables from a binary table extension (BINTABLE).

This class can not be constructed directly from Python, but instead is returned from wtb.

Attributes Summary

extlev	int (read-only) EXTLEV identifying the binary table extension.
extnam	str (read-only) EXTNAME identifying the binary table extension.
extver	int (read-only) EXTVER identifying the binary table extension.
i	int (read-only) Image axis number.
kind	str (read-only) wcstab array type.
m	int (read-only) wcstab axis number for index vectors.
ndim	int (read-only) Expected dimensionality of the wcstab array.
row	int (read-only) Table row number.
ttype	str (read-only) TTYPEn identifying the column of the binary table that contains the wcstab array.

Methods Summary

print_contents()

Print the contents of the Wtbarr object to stdout.

Attributes Documentation

extlev

int (read-only) EXTLEV identifying the binary table extension.

extnam

str (read-only) EXTNAME identifying the binary table extension.

extver

int (read-only) EXTVER identifying the binary table extension.

i

int (read-only) Image axis number.

kind

str (read-only) wcstab array type.

Character identifying the wcstab array type:

• 'c': coordinate array,

• 'i': index vector.

m

int (read-only) wcstab axis number for index vectors.

ndim

int (read-only) Expected dimensionality of the wcstab array.

row

int (read-only) Table row number.

ttype

str (read-only) TTYPEn identifying the column of the binary table that contains the wcstab array.

Methods Documentation

print_contents()

Print the contents of the Wtbarr object to stdout. Probably only useful for debugging purposes, and may be removed in the future.

To get a string of the contents, use repr.
