Examples

To search for the period in a datafile

ICL> FOLDLOTS
FOLDLOTS - V1.5-1
INPUT - Enter name of input datafile > LTIME
*Variance not present in input datafile*
Using 12 of the 16 input data values
FOLD_OBJ - Enter name of output fold file > XFOLD
CHI_OBJ - Enter name of output chi-sq v period file > XPER
PERIOD - Enter start period for folding /1/ > 4
PINC - Period increment > 0.01
NPER - Enter no. of periods to fold at > 400
EPOCH - Enter epoch of phase zero /6743.42/ > ?
Enter in atomic time, The default value is the BASE_TAI in the header
EPOCH - Enter epoch of phase zero /6743.42/ >
BINS - Number of phase bins > 4
WEIGHTED - Are weighted means required? > NO
Best fit period = 7.18 seconds
Chi-sq value of best fit to mean = 307.82
