trim.data: Truncate data

In BBEST: Bayesian Estimation of Incoherent Neutron Scattering Backgrounds

Description

The function truncates the data (deletes low- and high-x information).

Usage

trim.data(data, x.min, x.max)

Arguments

data	an object of type data. See set.data for details.
x.min, x.max	numeric values determining the region to keep.

Details

Frequently, the experimental data need to be truncated to remove unwanted ranges.

Value

an object of type data with all functions cropped to the region [x.min, x.max]

Examples

# prepare data
x <- seq(0, 50, 0.01)
y <- .8*exp(-x)*x^4 
dat <- list(x=x, y=y)
# truncate
dat <- trim.data(dat, 1, 25)
# plot results
plot(x,y,t="l",lwd=4, col=4)
lines(dat$x, dat$y, lwd=4, col=2)
legend(15,3,c("initial", "truncated"), lty=1, col=c(4,2))
