Purpose:
Particle density histogram from a dump.
Description:
The histo tool creates spatial histograms of particle snapshots in a dump file.
The histo constructor takes an object that stores atom snapshots (dump, data) as its argument.
The compute() method creates a histogram in a specific dimension at a desired resolution, averaged across all selected snapshots and atoms in the dump. The returned vectors can be plotted; x is the distance along the chosen dimension, y is the histogram counts.
Usage:
h = histo(d) d = dump/cdump object
x,y = h.compute('x',N,lo,hi) compute histogram in dim with N bins
lo/hi are optional, if not used histo will be over entire box
