Hi Syed, If any beamline is giving you data in a non-standard binary format and not providing software to deal with the data, either complain very loudly (and not to the people at the beamline -- complain to the people *paying* the people who are running the beamline), or use another beamline.

The amplitude parameter is N*S02, so that S02 and N are completely correlated. If you set N = 2 guess S02 = 0.8 and the fit returns S02 = 0.75 +/- 0.05 Then the correct interpretation is that N*S02 = 2*(0.75 +/- 0.05) = 1.5 +/- 0.10 If you had asserted that S02 = 0.75 and

Hi Matthias, Hmm, looking at this more closely, my guess is that you're using an older version scipy than I am. Can you verify what scipy version you have? That is, I do see that the return value for this call did change sometime in the past 2 years, though I'm not sure exactly which version.
