be useful for reading large fits files. Compared to astropy.io.fits, this package is closer to the underlying cfitsio library.

Fitsio also exposes a microlanguage (implemented in CFITSIO) for making efficient SQL-like queries of tables (single tables only though–no joins or anything like that).

Of course, already installing #debian on it... It somehow didn't like the trixie installer. Bookworm seems to work fine so far...

may cause SIGSEGVs.

The goal is to eventually use these routines to build a more Perl-like interface to many common tasks such as reading and writing of images and ASCII and binary tables.

This module attempts to provide a wrapper for nearly every cfitsio routine, while retaining as much cfitsio behavior as possible. As such, one should be aware that it is still somewhat low-level, in the sense that handing an array which is not the correct size to a routine like fits_write_img()

It is written in ANSI C++ and implemented using the C++ Standard Library with namespaces, exception handling, and member template functions.

This package contains what you need for compiling sources that use this library in your own code.

Hi @emily.space, I yesterday followed your talk at #ADASS2025. We do a weekly posting about a random Debian Astro package, meant to provide an overview over the available software. Would that fit into the #AstroCode news space and be welcomed?

This package installs NumPy for Python 3.

This package includes test and multi-contextual client/server applications, the development and runtime libraries.

This is a metapackage to install all openvlbi packages.

Model parameters can be "frozen" (that is, held constant during the fitting process). Simple boundary constraints can be imposed on parameter values, which can be helpful to keep parameters from becoming negative, for example. Please see the documentation for the PARINFO keyword if you wish to

permission. This algorithm is more desirable than CURVEFIT because it is generally more stable and less likely to crash than the brute-force approach taken by CURVEFIT, which is based upon Numerical Recipes.

MPFIT has additional capabilities not found in CURVEFIT.
