pymodelfit.core.scale_model¶

pymodelfit.core.scale_model(model, scaleparname='A', scaleval=1)[source]¶

A convinience function to generate a CompositeModel with a scaling factor multiplying the wrapped model.

A convinience to generate a CompositeModel with a scaling factor multiplying the wrapped model (e.g. $A m(x)$ ).

Parameters:	model (`FunctionModel` object or string) – the model to wrap (or a name of a model that will be created) scaleparname (string) – name for the parameter controlling the scaling factor scaleval (float) – The initial value for the scale parameter.
Returns:	a `CompositeModel` (or subclass) object
