Gaussian Function

description: Folks, I have a need to build a Gaussian function this morning. I don't know why, but I can NEVER remember how to do this. Apparently, certain facts are incapable of being stored in my brain. (The latest example is "milk vetch", the name of a flower ubiquitous around here right now!) Anyway, I'm poking around for the equation, as usual, and I run into the GAUSSIAN_FUNCTION function (who names these things!) that finally does exactly what I want. It was introduced in IDL 8.1. Who knew!? Now, what is the chance of me remembering GAUSSIAN_FUNCTION when I want a Gaussian function? :-( Cheers, David -- David Fanning, Ph.D. Fanning Software Consulting, Inc.
