Class ExperimentCollection

object --+ | dict --+ | ExperimentCollection

ExperimentCollection(experiment name list) An ExperimentCollection unites a collection of experiments. For now, it's most important function is to collect group the independent variables by Calculation to avoid wasting computer effort redoing calculations. Individual experiments can be accessed via dictionary-type indexing.

source code

x.__init__(...) initializes x; see x.__class__.__doc__ for signature

Returns: new empty dictionary
Overrides: object.__init__: (inherited documentation)

AddExperiment(self, expt)

source code


LoadExperiments(experiment name list)

Adds the experiments in the list to the collection

GetVarsByCalc()

source code

Returns a dictionary of all the dependent and independent variables for 
all the calculations required to compare with the data in all the
experiments. The dictionary is of the form: 
 dictionary(calculation name) -> ordered list of unique independent
                                 variables

Returns: dictionary

GetData()

source code

Returns a dictionary containing all the data for the experiments. The
dictionary is of the form:
 dictionary[expt name][calc name][dependent vars][independent vars]
         = value.

Note that value may be an arbitrary object.

Returns: dictionary
