convert_to_parameter#
- zfit.param.convert_to_parameter(value, name=None, prefer_constant=True, params=None, lower=None, upper=None, stepsize=None, *, label=None, dependents=None)[source]#
Convert a numerical to a constant/floating parameter or return if already a parameter. (deprecated arguments)
Deprecated: SOME ARGUMENTS ARE DEPRECATED:
(dependents)
. They will be removed in a future version. Instructions for updating: Useparams
instead.- Parameters:
value (ztyping.NumericalScalarType | ZfitParameter | Callable) – Value of the parameter. If a
ZfitParameter
is passed, it will be returned as is.name (str | None) – Name of the parameter. If None, a unique name will be created.
prefer_constant (bool) – If True, create a ConstantParameter instead of a Parameter, if possible.
params (ZfitParameter | Iterable[ZfitParameter] | None) – If the value is a callable, the parameters that are passed to the callable.
lower (ztyping.NumericalScalarType | None) – Lower limit of the parameter.
upper (ztyping.NumericalScalarType | None) – Upper limit of the parameter.
stepsize (ztyping.NumericalScalarType | None) – Step size of the parameter.
label (str | None) – |@doc:param.init.label||@docend:param.init.label|
- Return type:
ZfitParameter
