Measurement.compare_residuals¶
- abstract static Measurement.compare_residuals(first, second)[source]¶
This compares residuals computed using these measurement models.
If this returns
True
, thenfirst
is smaller than or equal tosecond
(according to the definition of the residuals for this measurement). IfFalse, then ``first
is larger thansecond
. This is used to check for divergence.- Parameters
first (Union[Sequence, numpy.ndarray, numbers.Real]) – The first residual
second (Union[Sequence, numpy.ndarray, numbers.Real]) – The second residual
- Returns
True
if the first residual <= second residual otherwiseFalse
- Return type
bool
