Objective
• Quick Tour of IDL
• Writing IDL Programs

Before we start
% source ~rvrpci/.simg726.rc
% script% set history=100
AT THE END OF THE UNIX SESSION,DON’T FORGET TO TYPE
% ^D

Before we END
AT THE END OF THE UNIX SESSION,DON’T FORGET TO TYPE
% ^D
You now have file called typescript which contains a log of your UNIX session

Starting IDL in UNIX
• To start command line interface IDL environment% idl
• To start graphical interface IDL environment% idlde

IDL Help
• MOST IMPORTANT IDL COMMAND OF ALL
IDL> ?

Other IDL Help Facilities
IDL> doc_library,’moment’
• Allows specially formatted code comments to be viewed without having to view the source code

General IDL Information
• N.B. Platform specific limitation – UNIX
• File name conflict between lower and upper case characters
– e.g. addnum.pro vs. AddNum.pro
• Recommend use of strictly lowercase file names
Winter Quarter 2003 Rolando V. Raqueño 1010
IDL Character Set• IDL is not case sensitive• Commands and arguments are delimited by
comas.– e.g. IDL> print, a
• Comments are started by a semicolon (;)– e.g. IDL> ; This is a comment
• Command options are set using a backslash (/)– e.g. IDL> tv, a, /order
Winter Quarter 2003 Rolando V. Raqueño 1111
Other IDL Characters
• System variables are started with an exclamation point (!)e.g. IDL> print, !PIe.g. IDL> y = sin( x*!DTOR )
• Command line continuation with $e.g. IDL> print, 180 / $
!PI
Winter Quarter 2003 Rolando V. Raqueño 1212
Other IDL Characters
• Multiple IDL commands can be separated by the & symbol– e.g. IDL> a=0.0 & b=1.0
• UNIX Command execution– e.g. IDL> $ls -la

Journal Facility of IDL
• The journal command allows you to record all IDL activity during a particular session
IDL> journal, ‘sequence.pro’
IDL> print, 3*5
IDL> journal

Images Data• Displaying Image Data
– You can read in image data in a manner similar to other forms of two-dimensional data. You will need to ascertain whether the data is an ASCII file or a binary file
IDL> openr, lun,’ctscan.dat’,/get_lunIDL> scan=bytarr(256,256)IDL> readu, lun, scanIDL> free_lun, lun

Writing IDL Programs
Winter Quarter 2003 Rolando V. Raqueño 5151
General Form of an IDL Program• Parts of an IDL program
pro program_name [, arg1, arg2, ..., argn]
IDL statement #1IDL statement #2
.
.
.IDL statement #n
end
Winter Quarter 2003 Rolando V. Raqueño 5252
Compiling an IDL Program
• Create a program to take celsius arguments and print out fahrenheit valuespro celsius_to_fahrenheit, celsius
print, 9/5*celsius+32
end
• To compile:IDL> .compile celsius_to_fahrenheit.pro
Winter Quarter 2003 Rolando V. Raqueño 5353
Executing an IDL Program
• To use the program in scalar mode:
IDL> c = 100.0
IDL> celsius_to_fahrenheit, c
• To use the program in array mode:
IDL> c = findgen(201)/2
IDL> celsius_to_fahrenheit, c
Winter Quarter 2003 Rolando V. Raqueño 5454
General Form of an IDL Function• Parts of an IDL function
function program_name [, arg1, arg2, ..., argn]
IDL statement #1IDL statement #2
.
.
.IDL statement #nreturn, answer
end
Winter Quarter 2003 Rolando V. Raqueño 5555
Compiling an IDL Function• Create a function to take celsius
arguments and print out fahrenheit valuesfunction celsius_to_fahrenheit, celsius
answer=9/5*celsius+32
return, answer
end
• To compile:IDL> .compile celsius_to_fahrenheit.pro
Winter Quarter 2003 Rolando V. Raqueño 5656
Executing an IDL Function
• To use the program:IDL> c = findgen(201)/2IDL> f = celsius_to_fahrenheit(c)IDL> print, fIDL> plot, c, f
• Equivalently:IDL> print, celsius_to_fahrenheit(c)IDL> plot, c, celsius_to_fahrenheit(c)
Winter Quarter 2003 Rolando V. Raqueño 5757
Program Designprogram file vs. function file
• Use functions in case of mathematical functions to allow composition of functions
IDL> k=celsius_to_kelvin(fahrenheit_to_celsius(f))
• Use program file in case of process not requiring the return of data
IDL> write_to_file,’temperature.dat’,k
Winter Quarter 2003 Rolando V. Raqueño 5858
Parameter Passing in IDL
• IDL passes parameters into functions and programs by reference
• This means parameters can be modified through “side effect”
pro celsius_to_fahrenheit, celsius
celsius =9/5*celsius+32
end
Winter Quarter 2003 Rolando V. Raqueño 5959
Problems with “Side Effect” Parameter Passing
IDL> a=32.0
IDL> celsius_to_fahrenheit,a
% Compiled module: CELSIUS_TO_FAHRENHEIT.
IDL> print,a
64.0000
Winter Quarter 2003 Rolando V. Raqueño 6060
A Debugging Exercise
• The IDL function and program examples celsius_to_fahrenheit all compile, but generate incorrect answers in some cases.
• This is left as a debugging exercise
Winter Quarter 2003 Rolando V. Raqueño 6161
Hints for Statistics Problem
• Study the IDL functionsn_elements()
size()
• Try to reuse as many of the functions as possible.
• Do not be concerned with efficiency at this point.
