multipletau
===========

|PyPI Version| |Tests Status| |Coverage Status| |Docs Status|

Multiple-tau correlation is computed on a logarithmic scale (less
data points are computed) and is thus much faster than conventional
correlation on a linear scale such as `numpy.correlate <http://docs.scipy.org/doc/numpy/reference/generated/numpy.correlate.html>`__. 


Installation
------------
The only requirement for ``multipletau`` is Python 3.x and
`NumPy <http://www.numpy.org/>`__. Install multipletau from the
Python package index:

::

    pip install multipletau


Documentation
-------------

The documentation, including the reference and examples, is available
on `readthedocs.io <https://multipletau.readthedocs.io/en/stable/>`__.


Usage
-----

.. code:: python

    import numpy as np
    import multipletau
    a = np.linspace(2,5,42)
    v = np.linspace(1,6,42)
    multipletau.correlate(a, v, m=2)
    array([[   0.        ,  569.56097561],
    	   [   1.        ,  549.87804878],
           [   2.        ,  530.37477692],
           [   4.        ,  491.85812017],
           [   8.        ,  386.39500297]])


Citing
------
The multipletau package should be cited like this
(replace "x.x.x" with the actual version of multipletau that you used
and "DD Month YYYY" with a matching date).

You can find out what version you are using by typing (in a Python console):

.. code:: python

    >>> import multipletau
    >>> multipletau.__version__
    '0.4.0'
