#!/usr/bin/env python # coding: utf-8 # # 1. Welcome to Jupyter Notebook # *This notebook is part of [FRETBursts](http://tritemio.github.io/FRETBursts/) burst analysis software.* # #

Welcome! You are reading a Jupyter Notebook, a document containing # narrative, code and the output of code execution. Here you will find a # few basic instructions on running FRETBursts notebooks.

# # Please send feedback and report any problem opening a # [FRETBursts Issue](https://github.com/tritemio/FRETBursts/issues) on GitHub. # ## How to run it? # # The notebook is composed of "text cells", such as this paragraph, and "code cells" # containing the code to be executed (and identified by an `In [ ]` prompt). # # To execute a code cell, select it and press `SHIFT+ENTER`. # To modify a cell, click on it to go into "edit mode" (indicated by a green frame # around the cell), then type. When your are done, `SHIFT+ENTER` will end the editing. # # You can also execute the entire notebook in a single step by using # the menu *Cell* -> *Run All*. # # As an example, try to run the following code cell: # In[1]: 2 + 2 # Finally, for a mini-tour of the various interface elements # click on menu *Help* -> *User Interface Tour*. # # 2. Data files # # Each FRETBursts notebook is set up to download and analyze a sample data # file. To use your own data file, you need to paste its name in the # `filename` variable in the FRETBursts notebook of your choice. # #
#
# For online users: when running the FRETBursts notebooks online, # you need to upload the data file first (if you want to use your own data). # The upload procedure varies depending on the size of your file # (see next paragraphs). #
# # ## Online: upload files under 35 MB # # Data files up to ~35 MB can be directly uploaded from the dashboard. # Just go back to the *Home Tab* and click on the **Upload** button on the # top right. # # ## Online: upload files over 35 MB # # For large files (>35 MB), the upload button will not work. # In this case, you have to first upload the file somewhere on the internet, # and then copy the file URL in the `url` variable in the # FRETBursts notebook you want to use. # # 3. Which notebook? # # FRETBursts includes several notebooks. We recommend to start with the # [μs-ALEX notebook](RETBursts - us-ALEX smFRET burst analysis.ipynb) # which is the most detailed tutorial covering most of the basic aspects # of burst analysis. # # 4.
