Calculate k-th largers peaks or valleys in a data line split into given number of sampling lengths.

This is a general function that can be used as the base for various standard roughness quantities such as Rp, Rpm, Rv, Rvm or R3z. It is assumed the line is already levelled, the form removed, etc.

See gwy_data_line_count_peaks() for the description what is considered a peak.

For larger thresholds and/or short lines some sampling lengths may not contain the requested number of peaks. If there are any peaks at all, the smallest peak height (even though it is not rank -th) is used. If there are no peaks, a large negative value is stored in the corresponding peakvalues item.

                           gdouble vthreshold);

Counts peaks or valleys defined by thresholds in a data line.

Peak is defined as a part of the profile that extends above the peak threshold and is separarted by valleys that extend below the valley threshold. For non-zero thresholds there may be parts between that are neither peaks not valleys because the local maxima in them are insignificant.

In either case, values of pthreshold and vthreshold must be non-negative. Usually one passes the same value for both.

                            gint nstats);

Calculates the distribution of data line values.

This function is quite similar to gwy_data_line_dh(), the differences are: output normalization (chosen to make the integral unity), output units (again set to make the integral unity), automated binning.

Note the i -th bin is [i *dx +off ,(i +1)*dx +off ] so the central value you probably want to use for plotting is (i +0.5)*dx +off (where dx is the distribution data line pixel size, off is its offset).

If all values are equal and ymin , ymax are not explictly specified, the range is chosen as [v -|v |/2,v +|v /2] where v is the unique value, except when v =0, in which case the range is set to [-1,1].
