Signature#

def create_samples(fname, nra = 100, ndec = 100, detnames = ('H1', 'L1'), gps_time = 1136574828.0, dt_sinc = DEFAULT_DT, dt_max = DEFAULT_DT_MAX, nsamples = 100000)

Input variables#
Name	Type	Default	Description
`fname`			File name of archive to create
`nra`		100	Number of right ascensions
`ndec`		100	Number of declinations
`detnames`		(‘H1’, ‘L1’)	Names of detectors for the structure
`gps_time`		1136574828.0	Fiducial GPS time for mapping between the RA-DEC and time delays (arbitrary for typical usage)
`dt_sinc`		DEFAULT_DT	Time resolution for marginalization
`dt_max`		DEFAULT_DT_MAX	Rough upper bound on the individual delays
`nsamples`		100000	Number of random samples of the inclination and the polarization

Output variables#

Return annotation	Docstring type	Description
`None`
