\chapter{Datafiles}
\section{Input Datafiles}
\subsection{WCS header}
In every input file, it is possible to set a WCS header to define the coordinates of the objects in the file. \\
{\sl \#REFERENCE \ } {\sl int \ RA \ DEC} \\
If \textit{int} = 0 : the positions are in degree WCS aligned.\\
If \textit{int} = 1 : the positions are in arcsec relative to (RA,DEC) expressed in sexagesimal format (HH:MM:SS DD:MM:SS). \\
If \textit{int} = 2 : the positions are in pixels relative to the reference pixels. In this case, (RA,DEC) defines the coordinates (X,Y) of the reference pixel. \\
If \textit{int} = 3 : the positions are in arcsec relative to (RA,DEC) expressed in degrees. \\
\subsection{Object file}
\subsubsection{Definition}
This ascii file contains a list of objects characterized by their position,
shape parameters and redshift, with the following format.
There are 2 formats. The default one specified by the first argument
in the parameter file {\sl int1} = 1 is
{\sl int \ \ float1 \ \ \ float2 \ \ \ float3 \ \ \ float4
\ \ \ float5 \ \ \ float6}
{\sl int \ \ } is a characteristic integer that defines the object.
{\sl float1 \ \ } is the X position of the object expressed in arcsec or in degree.
{\sl float2 \ \ } is the Y position of the object expressed in arcsec or in degree.
{\sl float3 \ \ } is the semi-major-axis $a$ of the equivalent ellipse of the
object, expressed in arcsecond.
{\sl float4 \ \ } is the semi-minor-axis $b$ of the equivalent ellipse of the
object, expressed in arcsecond.
{\sl float5 \ \ } is the position-angle $\theta$ of the equivalent ellipse of the
object, expressed in degree. This give the orientation of the semi-major-axis
from the horizontal line (counter-clockwise).
{\sl float6 \ \ } is the redshift $z$ of the object. If the redshift is unknown
this value should be set to $0$.
{\sl float7 \ \ } is the magnitude of the object.
The alternate one specified by the first argument {\sl int1} = 2 (see
below) is useful in conjunction with keyword arcletstat for weak
lensing. It is similar to the default format, with the 2 extra columns
{\sl float8 \ \ } is the variance of the E1 ellipticity component
(ellipticity defined as $E = a^2 - b^2 / a^2 + b^2$.)
{\sl float9 \ \ } is the variance of the E2 ellipticity component.
\subsubsection{Uses}
Such a file can characterize either an arclet file or a source file.
Here is the list of identifiers which requires such a file:
{\bf runmode \ \ \ \ image \ \ \ } if $z=0$ then the program will use the
one defined by {\bf source \ \ \ \ z{\_}source \ \ \ }.
{\bf runmode \ \ \ \ source \ \ \ } if $z=0$ then the program will use the
one defined by {\bf source \ \ \ \ z{\_}source \ \ \ }.
{\bf runmode \ \ \ \ study \ \ \ } the value of $z$ is not used under this
identifiers.
{\bf image \ \ \ \ multfile \ \ \ } for each image in each set of multiple
images the characteristic integer and the redshift ($0$ if unknown)
must be the same.
{\bf image \ \ \ \ arcletstat \ \ \ }
\subsection{Marker file}
This ascii file contains a list of points, with the following format:
{\sl int \ \ float1 \ \ \ float2}
{\sl int \ \ } is a characteristic integer that defines the marker.
{\sl float1 \ \ } is the X position of the marker expressed in arcsec.
{\sl float2 \ \ } is the Y position of the marker expressed in arcsec.
\subsubsection{Uses}
Such a file can characterize only markers that are in the Image Plane.
There is only one identifier that uses such a file. That is:
{\bf runmode \ \ \ \ marker \ \ \ }
\subsection{IPX pixel-image file}
The IPX format is a simple format for pixel-images. It is made of an
ASCII header of 4 lines, followed by the data, that can be written
either in ASCII or in binary.\\
The header is defined in this way:\\
{
\bf
\begin{tabular}{lllll}
2&xmin&xmax&ymin&ymax\\
nx&&&& \\
ny&&&& \\
type&mode&nature&&\\
comments&&&&\\
\end{tabular}
}\\
2 stands for Dimension 2.\\
xmin, xmax, ymin, ymax are floats value defining the scaling of the image.
The center of the bottom-left pixel is (xmin,ymin), the center of the
upper-right pixel is (xmax,ymax).\\
nx is the dimension in x, ny in y.\\
type can be {\sl int} or {\sl float} or {\sl double}, it is the type of the
pixel-image data.\\
mode can be {\sl txt} for an ASCII representation of the data, or
{\sl bin} for a binary representation.\\
nature is either {\sl real} or {\sl complex}.\\
comments is at maximum a 1024 long ASCII chain, ended by an EOL character.
If mode is set to {\sl txt} the data is listed in the file as a column.
If it is set to {\sl bin} the data can be read line by line.
\subsection{FITS pixel-image file}
The program can read FITS pixel-frame. It will read the FITS file and
convert the data in float (whatever was the type of the data in the file).\\
The pixel-frame has to be scaled.\\
This is done in FITS by modifying the following keywords:\\
CRVAL2 = x-value of pixel CRPIX2\\
CRPIX2 = index $i$ of the reference pixel\\
CDELT2 = pixel size in the x direction\\
CRVAL1 = y-value of pixel CRPIX1\\
CRPIX1 = index $j$ of the reference pixel\\
CDELT1 = pixel size in the y direction\\
From this values the program compute the xmin,xmax,ymin,ymax in this way:\\
xmin = CRVAL2 + (CRPIX2-1)*CDELT2\\
xmax = CRVAL2 + (nx - CRPIX2)*CDELT2\\
ymin = CRVAL1 + (CRPIX1-1)*CDELT1\\
ymax = CRVAL1 + (ny - CRPIX1)*CDELT1\\
\section{Output Datafiles}
{\bf ngrille} can generate a lot of output file, depending on what
was given in the inputfile. It generates always a "mouchard" file
{\sl para.out \ }. Where we can find back the different identifiers with their
values, plus others computed constants.
The following subsections give the complete list of the output file that
can be created by {\bf ngrille} with their format.
\subsection{Potential file}
{\sl pot.dat \ \ \ }
This ascii file is written with the following format:
{\sl int \ \ float1 \ \ \ float2 \ \ \ float3 \ \ \ float4
\ \ \ float5 \ \ \ float6}
{\sl int \ \ } is a characteristic integer that defines the potential clump.
{\sl float1 \ \ } is the X position of the center of the clump
expressed in arcsec.
{\sl float2 \ \ } is the X position of the center of the clump
expressed in arcsec.
{\sl float3 \ \ } is the semi-major-axis $a$ of the ellipse of the
line, expressed in arcsecond.
{\sl float4 \ \ } is the semi-minor-axis $b$ of the ellipse of the
line, expressed in arcsecond.
{\sl float5 \ \ } is the position-angle $\theta$ of the ellipse of the
line, expressed in degree. This give the orientation of the semi-major-axis
from the horizontal line (counter-clockwise).
{\sl float6 \ \ } is a non-significative constant, in general $0$.
The lines represented are the core{\_}radius if any with the ellipticity
and the orientation of the mass distribution, and the tangential
critical line of the clump if it was alone (analytic expression).
Furthermore a cross indicates the center position.

You can read the bayes.dat files with the \textbf{Histogram} and \textbf{Histogram2D} tools.
They plot 1D and 2D histograms of the samples distribution and give an estimate of the 1 or 2 dimensional marginalised distribution. Those tools have no arguments.
