forwardmodel: Docstrings for DistributedForwardModel.
phasemap: save_to_text now optionally without header.
ramp: Docstrings added.

forward_model: DistributedForwardModel created which uses the multiprocessing
               package for distributed computations.

Cleanup and documentation!
ramp: New class for polynomial ramps. Instantiated in the ForwardModel.
forwardmodel: Now uses new ramp class.
phasemapper: Ramp functionality moved to ramp class.
reconstruction: Ramp order not used, ramp can be now retrieved from the ramp
                class after reconstruction.
analytic, magcreator: Better and consistent definition of pixel centers and
                      their influence on the phase.
testing: Minor corrections for new syntax.

colormap: New module with colormap subclass which has special functions to
          calculate directional rgb-colors, now used in many plots!
__init__: On star import now also has abbreviations for a few modules.
fwd_model: Now has flags for fitting an offset and/or ramp.
           CAUTION: will be moved next update to new class!
magdata: Removed colorwheel stuff (all moved to 'colormap'). Overhaul of quiver
         plot in 2D and 3D. Now shows mask and uses new colormap for angular
         color coding.

          to the new class). Added function to add ramps.
phasemapper: Now handles also offsets and ramps in the phase.
             CAUTION: will be moved next update to new class!
projector: Fixed bugs in SimpleProjector. 1) leftmost pixels are no longer moved
           moved to left corner of padded projection (when dim_uv is not None).
           2) odd padding when using dim_uv are now handled properly (one more
           pixel on top and right if necessary).
costfunction: n is now taken from the fwd_model instead of the data_set.
dataset: Introduced the count variable which gives the number of images.
magcreator: In the process of updating, more on next commit.
reconstruction: Also handles ramps and offsets now, properly extracts them after
                reconstruction.
regularisator: New argument 'add_params' is used to cut off input (for offset
               and ramp) which are not used in the regularisation.
scripts: several small changes...

costfunction: Now takes a ForwardModel as input instead of DataSet.
forwardmodel: New private function for processing one image (multiprocessing).

         distributions, fixed bug with ar_dens.
phasemap: now also has a mask which will be used to construct a 3D-mask for the
          magnetic distribution during reconstruction. Added setter/getter.
          Added copy(), scale_down()/scale_up() convenience functions.
          !CAUTION! Only NetCDF4 files save every new parameter!
projector: Fixed hidden bug in X/YTiltProjector, which was problematic during
           tilts over 360°. Now uses linear algebra (much clearer!).
           get_info() function now can be used non-verbose (for filenames).
dataset: added several setter/getter, addes set_3d_mask() for simple 2D tasks,
         renamed mask to confidence (for Se_inv construction)
tests: updated to include the fixes and new functions introduced in this update!

magdata/phasemap: load and save methods now dynamically save with absolute and
        relative paths. Relative paths are defined in the config.py file!

MagData: new quiver_plot3d with just matplotlib (buggy and still WOP).
logging: deleted several logging.debug prompts for speed up.

Se_inv: is now handled differently, defaults to eye-matrix, but can be set
        later (added a few convenience functions to DataSet)
utility: (re-)added utility module for index conversion
kernel/phasemapper: can now use FFTW library and operate on pre-allocated
        arrays
dtype: set dtype of arrays to np.float32/np.complex64 (halves memory size),
       also applied to numcore routines!
magdata: quiver_plot can now plot every n-th arrow (yet untested!)
reconstruction scripts: modified several reconstruction scripts.

test methods: (unfinished) scripts for fftw tests and kernel comparisons
paper 1: ch5-4 changed padding values to 0, 1, 3 and 7
plotting: deleted plt.show() lines (have to be done manually now or via Spyder)
logging: now named _log instead of LOG (private variable instead of constant)
         also some logs were disabled, because Pylint says they are slow...
reconstruction: now has info argument (pass a list in which cost info is copied)
phasemapper: changed sign of constant PHI_0, is now correctly positive (instead
             the negative z-integration is taken into account which was not done
             before!)
kernel: now uses FFTW, numpy code was changed accordingly and is still available
phasemapper: also uses FFTW now, work in progress: FFTW for jac_T_dot

        m: i'm'age
        n: i'n'put

Still to do: PhaseMapperElectric does not work
             3D reconstruction does not converge

Many Doctring corrections, all plots now have a "show" parameter to not show a
plot at the end of the method (needed for guis and such).
magdata: quiver_plot: axis switch for x-projection, implemented logarithmic
         arrows and scaling feature.
projector: added to_mag_data() method to directly produce a projected
           magnetization distribution.

         script to process file by Daniel Rüffner

pep8: optimizations

reconstruction: new scripts

package: some minor corrections (mainly import statements), some old functions
         were revived (e.g. in MagData)

scripts: adaption to the new structure and sorting (more work is to do here...)

_version: __version__ string is now imported from this file

phasemapper_core.pyx: added to separate the corresponding numcore_functions
                      from kernel_core.pyx

Renames:
datacollection --> dataset
optimizer      --> reconstruction

scripts:
interactive_setup is now implemented in an extended Spyder startup file.
some other scripts are now
the rest is NOT adapted, yet, which is the next task at hand
furthermore scripts will be sorted and unused ones deleted in the next commit

regrid: Added many scripts for regridding by Jörn
logging: Introduced logging
scripts: Added Scripts for regridding and simulating stuff for cooperations
removed: Unused test scripts
structure: Many new restructuring aspects already implemented

modularity and compatibility with future algorithms and ideas.

Replaced res with a for the grid spacing
(resolution is a reserved word in electron microscopy
Work in progress: jacobi matrix for projection

phasemapper: new function get_kernel() for convenience, mag_real_fast() for
calculation of the phase with pre-computed lookup-tables
projector: single_tilt_projection() now works as intended
Added scripts for the creation of core-shell-structures
Added script for charge calculation by contour integration
Added script for creating tilt series of core-shell-structure for reconstruction
Various minor modifications, mostly nomenclature and streamlining

pyramid: all docstrings in numpydoc (package installed) format (used by spinx)
holoimage: removed error, phase was falsely multiplied by pi/2
magcreator: removed create_mag_dist_comb, renamed functions for disc and vortex
magdata: Allows creation of empty MagData objects and easy adding of magnitudes

scripts: changed scripts to work with the new syntax of the package
PhaseMag and MagData: added load and save options for NetCDF files
MagData: changed 3D-plotting to use mayavi (faster and better looking)
test: added more TestCases for various modules
phasemapper: added computation method to use mx and my (now standard)
compare_method_errors: first draft of script to compare the different errors

Scripts are nearly adapted to the new structure and easier to read.
(Except analytic module and scripts get_jacobi and inverse)

For Pushing Purposes

Changed setup.py
Implemented assertion to check if jacobi matrix is the same

test: changed the dataloader TestCase
pyramex: first experiments with Cython and SCons
dataloader: changed the order in which the dimensions are saved,
        z_len is no longer part of the magnetization (this was the reason why
        we had to divide by res, which is equal to z_len for calculating coeff)
magcreator: shapes are now separate functions, mag_shape is now an argument for
        one unified create_hom_mag-function
phasemap: unification of the phasemap-functions in real space (just the pixel-
        field is calculated different now)

Removed old scripts (AnalyticSolution and DataLoader)
Added several template testcases
