It also prints the location and value of the maximum and minimum brightness in that portion. It returns these results in adverbs. Rectangular or circular apertures may be used. Adverbs (input): INNAME......Image name(name). Standard defaults. INCLASS.....Image name(class). Standard defaults. INSEQ.......Image name(seq. #). 0 => highest. INDISK......Disk drive # of image. 0 => any. BLC.........The Bottom Left-hand pixel of the subarray of the image to be analysed. The value (0,0) means (1,1). If BLC(1) = -1, then BLC(2) is taken to be a radius of a circular aperture centered on TRC(1),TRC(2). TRC.........The Top Right-hand pixel of the subarray of the image to be analysed. The value (0,0) means the top right hand corner of the entire image. See note above for circular apertures. DOINVERS....If true (>0.0), find the statistics in the full image except for those pixels within the BLC to TRC 7-dim cube. If false (<= 0.0), find the statistics within the BLC to TRC 7-dim cube. Adverbs (output): PIXAVG......Mean pixel value found in subimage in the same units as the image (e.g. Jy/beam). PIXSTD......RMS in the pixel values about the mean in the subimage in the same units as the image. PIXVAL......Peak pixel value in the subimage. PIXXY.......Pixel coordinates of the pixel having the largest value within the subimage. PIX2VAL.....Minimum pixel value in the subimage. PIX2XY......Pixel coordinates of the pixel having the smallest value within the subimage. ----------------------------------------------------------------
