What started out as a sort of slow day, ended up turning out really great.
Two turning points:
1) I finished my stellar population! all 216 files are neatly saved to a directory and are ready for use!
2) fixed my data structure! Turned it into a fits file and started plotting.
So I was feeling kind of off in the morning. I was slowly working on this data structure and didn't really understand my coding and kept running into different errors. But with Beth's help, I got it up and running and started tinkering with the data. I made histograms for max, min, and time, as well as a couple different error plots, that are neatly stored in a file. Learned the handy !p.multi trick and used it to neatly format my graphs. Beth asked for a histogram of minimum, but all of the minimum values are at 0 (this is with 10, 000 stars), so the graph was obsolete (and unplottable for that matter). I calculated the maximum of our max values, and did the same for min, average, and average of the time it took for our calculation.
A few things to check:
- time error plot (I think the values should be smaller)
- median vs. average plot
also have to update my latex doc with the work of the past week.
Feeling good!

Good work sniffing out that all values of MIN were the same.
