SYNOPSIS
sumpix [-dmrsv][-n num] x_range y_range file.fit ...
DESCRIPTION
Sum row, column, or region of a FITS or IRAF image
-c x y r: compute total counts in circle r from (x,y)
-d: compute and print standard deviation
-l: compute and print min and max values
-m: compute and print mean
-n: number of decimal places in output
-p: Print file name at start of line
-r: compute and print variance (sum of squares)
-s: compute and print sum (default)
-v: verbose
a range of 0 implies the full dimension an absence of ranges uses the entire image

mintegrate - evaluate average/sum/integral/derivative of 1-d numerical data
SYNOPSIS
mintegrate [OPTION]... [FILE]
DESCRIPTION
mintegrate is a program to compute averages, sums, integrals or derivatives of numerical 1-d data in situations where ultimate numerical
precision is not needed.
OPTIONS -a compute mean value (arithmetic average) and standard deviation
-c compute integral on closed x-data interval; In case that dx is not specified by the '-d' flag, the data are supposed to be from an
irregular x-grid, and dx is computed separately for every x-interval. The integral is computed by the trapezoidal rule.
-d <float>
compute integral on open x-data interval with the specified dx; Can be used also in combination with '-D' and '-c'.
-D compute difference btw. numbers or derivative of the y-data; In the default scenario where x- and y-data column are same, the dif-
ference btw. the current and the previous data value will be output. In this case when '-d' is defined as 0, the x-data value will
be print out in front of the calculated difference. If x-and the y-column are different and if the x-data resolution is not defined
or it is !=0, then the derivative of the y-data is calculated. When the x-data resolution is constant, specify it explicitly by '-d'
to achieve a higher numerical precision by a 'leapfrog' algorithm.
-x <int>
x-data column (default is 1). If 0, the x-range is an index;
-y <int>
y-data column, where y=f(x) (default is 1)
-r x_0:x_1
x-data range to consider
-s print out accumulated y_i sums: x_i versus accumulated f(x_i); In the case of a closed integral you have to specify also the x-data
resolution dx (see '-d' above).
-S compute the accumulated y_i-sums and add it to the output
-p <str>
print format of the result ("%.10g" is default)
-t <str>
output text in front of the result (invalid with '-s' or '-S'); A blank can be printed by using a double underscore character '__'.
-T run a self-test that the program is working correctly
-V print version number
--version
output version and license message
--help|-H
display help
-h display short help (options summary)
If none of the options '-a', '-D', '-d', or '-c' is used, then the sum of the provided data will be computed. Empty lines or lines starting
with '#' are skipped.
This program is perfectly suitable as a basic tool for initial data analysis and will meet the expected accuracy of a numerical solution
for the most demanding computer users and professionals. Yet be aware that, although the computations are carried with double floating pre-
cision, the computational techniques used for evaluating an integral or a standard deviation are analytically low-order approximations, and
thus not intended to be used for numerical computations in engineering or mathematical sciences for cases where an ultimate numerical pre-
cision is a must. For deeper understanding of the topic see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numerical_analysis.
