y = gauss(p, x, [y]) : Gaussian iFunc/gauss Gaussian fitting function y = p(1)*exp(-0.5*((x-p(2))/p(3)).^2) + p(4); The HalfWidth parameter is the Gaussian square root variance (Sigma). The 'true' half width is thus 1.177*HalfWidth. gauss(width) creates a model with a specified width(sigma) gauss([ parameters ]) creates a model with specified model parameters Reference: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaussian_function input: p: Gaussian model parameters (double) p = [ Amplitude Centre HalfWidth BackGround ] or 'guess' x: axis (double) y: when values are given and p='guess', a guess of the parameters is performed (double) output: y: model value ex: y=gauss([1 0 1 1], -10:10); or plot(gauss) Version: Aug. 22, 2017 See also iFunc, iFunc/fits, iFunc/plot, gauss1, lorz (c) E.Farhi, ILL.
