Script performs a sigma-clipping on the data from a text file. This is a useful Linux tool.

Download the program from the repository to your working directory, then make the script executable. I recommend to download it to any catalog pointed by the $PATH variable.

At the beginning call the script from the terminal window without any arguments. This will you give you a necessary description how the program works:

$ good_points

To start using the program you need to prepare some data. If you need to see the program in action immediately, please download data.lst file to the working directory and then type:

$ good_points data.lst

This call will run the program with default arguments. If you want to influence on these values, please add next arguments:

$ good_points data.lst 7 1.8 10 80

After all the script generates an additional file with results in the working directory. Moreover some statistical information are printed on the screen.

I encourage to visit my website to see more detailed description of this program. The current link can be found on my GitHub profile.
