dosurvey.py

-f <filename>

Input population model to use (default=populate.model)

-surveys <SURVEY NAME(S)>

Required: Name(s) of surveys to simulate on the population model

--noresults

By default, a .results file is written, containing a model of the population detected in the survey. This option switches off the writing of this file.

--asc

Write the survey model in plain ascii (psrpop old style). Not recommended, since the cPickle ‘.results’ file is easier to work with.

--summary

Write a short .summary file (per survey) describing number of detections, number of pulsars outside survey area, number smeared, and number not beaming

--nostdout

Turn off writing to stdout. Useful for many iterations eg. in large simulations
