NAME

       Arithmetic - arithmetic operations on images and numbers

SYNOPSIS

       astarithmetic [OPTION...] ASTRdata or number [ASTRdata] OPERATOR ...

DESCRIPTION

       Arithmetic  is  part  of  GNU  Astronomy  Utilities  0.19.   Arithmetic will do arithmetic
       operations on one or multiple images and numbers.  Simply put, the name of the image along
       with  the arithmetic operators and possible numbers are given as arguments. The extensions
       of each input are specified with (possibly multiple) calls to the '--hdu' option.

       Currently Arithmetic only supports postfix or reverse polish notation. For example to  get
       the  result  of  '5+6', you should write '5 6 +', or to get the average of two images, you
       should write 'a.fits b.fits + 2 /' (or more simply use the 'average' operator with 'a.fits
       b.fits average'). Please see the manual for more information.

       Arithmetic recognizes a large collection of standard operators, including basic arithmetic
       (e.g., +, -, x, /), mathematical (e.g., abs, pow, sqrt, log), statistical (minvalue,  min,
       max,  average),  comparison (e.g., lt, le, gt), logical (e.g., and, or, not), the full set
       of bitwise operators, and numeric type conversion operators to all known types. Please run
       the command below for a complete list describing all operators (press the 'SPACE' keyboard
       key, or arrow keys, to go down and 'q' to return to the command-line):

              $ info gnuastro "Arithmetic operators"

       For more information, please run any of the following commands. In particular  the  second
       contains  a  very comprehensive explanation of Arithmetic's invocation: expected input(s),
       output(s), and a full description of all the options.

       All options and their values:
              $ astarithmetic -P

       Inputs/Outputs and options:
              $ info astarithmetic

       Full section in manual/book:
              $ info Arithmetic

       Full Gnuastro manual/book:
              $ info gnuastro

       If you couldn't find your answer in the manual, you can get direct help  from  experienced
       Gnuastro users and developers. For more information, please run:

       -n, --metaname=STR
              Internal name (FITS images: EXTNAME keyword).

       -o, --output=STR
              Output file name.

       -O, --onedasimage
              Write 1D outputs as an image, not a table.

       -s, --onedonstdout
              Write 1D output on stdout, not in a table.

       --tableformat=STR
              Table fmt: 'fits-ascii', 'fits-binary', 'txt'.

       -u, --metaunit=STR
              Internal units (FITS images: BUNIT keyword).

       --wcslinearmatrix=STR

       --cite BibTeX citation for this program.

       --config=STR
              Read configuration file STR immediately.

       --lastconfig
