  <hr>

  <p>
	<p>
  You can split the data inside an AO to produce one or more output AOs. The <tt>ao/split</tt> method
  splits an AO by samples, times (if the AO contains time series data), frequencies (if the AO contains
  frequency data), intervals, or a number of pieces. We can control this as usual by defining our parameters.
</p>
<h2>Split by times</h2>
<p>
  Let us create a new time series AO for these examples.
</p>
<div class="fragment"><pre>
    pl = plist(<span class="string">'name'</span>, <span class="string">'None'</span>, <span class="string">'nsecs'</span>, 10, <span class="string">'fs'</span>, 1000, <span class="string">'tsfcn'</span>, <span class="string">'sin(2*pi*7.433*t) + randn(size(t))'</span>,<span class="string">'yunits'</span>,<span class="string">'V'</span>);
    a = ao(pl);
</pre></div>
<p>
  For splitting in time we need to define a time vector for the parameter list and pass it to <tt>ao/split</tt>
</p>
<div class="fragment"><pre>
    pl_time = plist(<span class="string">'times'</span>, [2 3]);
    a_time  = split(a, pl_time);
    iplot(a, a_time)
</pre></div>
<img src="images/ltpda_training_1/topic2/split_times.png" alt="split" border="1">

<h2>Split by frequencies</h2>
<p>
  For this we need a frequency data AO. One easy way to get this is by computing the power spectrum using <tt>ao/psd</tt>.
</p>
<div class="fragment"><pre>
    axx = a.psd;
</pre></div>
<p>
  Again we need a vector for the parameter list and pass it to <tt>ao/split</tt>
</p>

<div class="fragment"><pre>
    pl_freq  = plist(<span class="string">'frequencies'</span>, [10 100]);
    axx_freq = split(axx, pl_freq);
    iplot(axx, axx_freq)
</pre></div>
<img src="images/ltpda_training_1/topic2/split_freq.png" alt="split" border="1">

<h2>Split by intervals</h2>
<p>
  We can also split the AO by passing a time interval to the <tt>ao/split</tt> method.
</p>

<div class="fragment"><pre>
    pl_interv = plist(<span class="string">'start_time'</span>, 4, <span class="string">'end_time'</span>, 6);
    a_interv= split(a, pl_interv);
    iplot(a, a_interv)
</pre></div>
<img src="images/ltpda_training_1/topic2/split_interv.png" alt="split_interv" border="1">

<h2>Split by samples</h2>
<p>
  This type of splitting method we can use on any type of data. Let us use the frequency type, <tt>axx</tt>.
</p>
<p>
  Again we need a vector for the parameter list and pass it to <tt>ao/split</tt>,
  only that this time we will split our AO in to two parts.
</p>

<div class="fragment"><pre>
    pl_samp = plist(<span class="string">'samples'</span>, [50 100 101 300]);
    [axx_samp1 axx_samp2]= split(axx, pl_samp)
    iplot(axx, axx_samp1, axx_samp2)
</pre></div>
<img src="images/ltpda_training_1/topic2/split_samp.png" alt="split_samp" border="1">
<p>
  Although in this example the two resulting AOs are contiguous, they need not to be.
</p>
<h2>Join AOs</h2>
<p>
  We can join our two AOs back together using <tt>ao/join</tt>
</p>
<div class="fragment"><pre>
    axx_join = join(axx_samp1, axx_samp2);
    iplot(axx, axx_join)
</pre></div>
<img src="images/ltpda_training_1/topic2/split_join.png" alt="split_join" border="1">
<p>
  If we look at the history for <tt>axx_join</tt> (for instance, by entering <tt>dotview(axx_join.hist)</tt>), we will see the following:
</p>
<img src="images/ltpda_training_1/topic2/split_join_hist.png" alt="Split/join history" width="800px" border="1">
<p>
  Since the two AOs that are output from the 'split by samples' stage are independent, the history
  tree reflects this, showing two independent branches leading to the <tt>join</tt> step.
</p>
