Inconsistencies in syntax between Matlab and Python with argument 'lastX' #39

Closed cbimbo closed 1 year ago

cbimbo commented 1 year ago

When specifying which dates to load or process with argument 'lastX', the interpretation is different between Matlab and Python. In Matlab, it is the last X experiments (whatever their dates, e.g., in csv.queryExp) and in Python, it is the last X days (e.g., in check_date_selection**).

** btw, this function should be externalized, since it is now duplicated in the IBL format conversion script and the pyKS script.

function is externalised.

python 'lastX' now matches the meaning of the matlab syntax. (last x days compared to today can also be called with the syntax 'previousXdays')
