Hi Reinier,

Thanks for your comments.

The app decomposes the shape of a surface in so called zernikes terms: Zernike polynomials - Wikipediahttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zernike_polynomials

PV = Peak to Valley. Which is the difference between the maximum and minimum value of the deformed surface SFE = Surface Form Error, which is a average value of the surface deformation.

These terms have nothing to do with python or matlab. It is standard jargon in optics engineering.

Hi Jan,

An impressive tool you've made available. I've some problems understanding PV and SFE. What does it mean? And how are they calculated? Sorry that I need to ask. I'm not that familiar with reading Python while I typically use Matlab.

Thanks Reinier
