DIFFERENCE_STATS

Calculates statistics for Michelle darks in a pairwise manner

Description:

This recipe is meant to be used in an array tests suite. It takes a group of observations, subtracts successive pairs, then calculates and reports the standard deviation for each resulting differenced frame in a central 200-pixel-square region, and in the four channels of the detector. It finally provides the average of these statistics for the group as a whole.

Notes:

Parameters:

NUMBER = INTEGER
The number of frames in the group. The default is used if the number of frames is fewer than 2 or is not even. [20]
