"""
Creates a radio-frequency pulse event with arbitrary pulse shape and optionally an accompanying slice select
trapezoidal gradient event.
Parameters
----------
signal : np.ndarray
Arbitrary waveform.
flip_angle : float
Flip angle in radians.
system : Opts
System limits. Default is a system limits object initialised to default values.
freq_offset : float
Frequency offset in Hertz (Hz). Default is 0.
phase_offset : float
Phase offset in Hertz (Hz). Default is 0.
time_bw_product : float
Time-bandwidth product. Default is 4.
bandwidth : float
Bandwidth in Hertz (Hz).
max_grad : float
Maximum gradient strength of accompanying slice select trapezoidal event. Default is `system`'s `max_grad`.
max_slew : float
Maximum slew rate of accompanying slice select trapezoidal event. Default is `system`'s `max_slew`.
slice_thickness : float
Slice thickness of accompanying slice select trapezoidal event. The slice thickness determines the area of the
slice select event.
delay : float
Delay in milliseconds (ms) of accompanying slice select trapezoidal event.
use : str
Use of arbitrary radio-frequency pulse event. Must be one of 'excitation', 'refocusing' or 'inversion'.
Returns
-------
rf : SimpleNamespace
Radio-frequency pulse event with arbitrary pulse shape.
gz : SimpleNamespace
Slice select trapezoidal gradient event accompanying the arbitrary radio-frequency pulse event.
