propagate_add(other_nddata, result_data)[source] [edit on github]

Propagate uncertainties for addition.

Parameters:

other_nddata : NDData instance

The data for the second other_nddata in a + b

result_data : ndarray instance

The data array that is the result of the addition
Returns:

result_uncertainty : NDUncertainty instance

The resulting uncertainty
Raises:

IncompatibleUncertaintiesException

Raised if the method does not know how to propagate the uncertainties.
