Errandpy

an automatical tool for extracting short-range force in NC-AFM data

Installation

this package runs in the environment of python 3.6:

• pip install errandpy

Basic Usage

• first, let's run the test script, an example forcecurve is included in this package, see errandpy.test.py

    import errandpy.test as test
    test.test_fitting()

• the most easy way to use this tool is call the function in handy.py, see errandpy.handy.py

    import errandpy
    z0, param = errandpy.tell_me_z0(x, y)  # your force curve

• then, errandpy bring a z0 value to you, you can use this z0 value to fitting curve. This tool use GSM to fitting. If you want to use it,

    import errandpy
    result_dictionary = errandpy.extract_short_range(x, y, z0)

• fitting result of a, b, c, d and z0, ze are include in the result_dictionary.
