class linefinder:
    """
    The class for automated spectral line search in ASAP.

    Example:
       fl=linefinder()
       fl.set_scan(sc)
       fl.set_options(threshold=3)
       nlines=fl.find_lines(edge=(50,0))
       if nlines!=0:
          print "Found ",nlines," spectral lines"
          print fl.get_ranges(False)
       else:
          print "No lines found!"
       sc2=sc.poly_baseline(fl.get_mask(),7)

    The algorithm involves a simple threshold criterion. The line is
    considered to be detected if a specified number of consequtive
    channels (default is 3) is brighter (with respect to the current baseline
    estimate) than the threshold times the noise level. This criterion is
    applied in the iterative procedure updating baseline estimate and trying
    reduced spectral resolutions to detect broad lines as well. The off-line
    noise level is determined at each iteration as an average of 80% of the
    lowest variances across the spectrum (i.e. histogram equalization is
    used to avoid missing weak lines if strong ones are present). For
    bad baseline shapes it is recommended to increase the threshold and
    possibly switch the averaging option off (see set_options) to
    detect strong lines only, fit a high order baseline and repeat the line
    search.

                          Default is sqrt(3), which together with

             min_nchan    a minimal number of consequtive channels,

                          be a detection. Default is 3.
             avg_limit    A number of consequtive channels not greater than

                          broad lines. Default is 8.
             box_size     A running mean box size specified as a fraction
                          of the total spectrum length. Default is 1/5
        Note:  For bad baselines threshold should be increased,
               and avg_limit decreased (or even switched off completely by
               setting this parameter to 1) to avoid detecting baseline
               undulations instead of real lines.
