Import of arrival times #187

Open tneg opened 6 years ago

tneg commented 6 years ago

Is it possible to import into PyCorrFit a file containing only the arrival times of single photons? This would allow it to work with filetypes which aren't supported by PyCorrFit (especially the PicoQuant .ptu filetype)

I took a look around regarding that topic, see #84 , #15, and #20. The package https://github.com/dwaithe/FCS_point_correlator supports the .ptu file format, but I haven't gotten around to copying the implementation to PyCorrFit (see also https://github.com/dwaithe/FCS_point_correlator/issues/4).

The easiest workaround would be to convert your data with FCS_point_correlator and then export the data to the PyCorrFit .csv file format (If you then still need it in PyCorrFit).
