## PyArt Functions

The functions below work with PyArt to do Solo II operations. The functions all require the following:

- `radar`: PyArt radar object.
- `field`: Name of the field containing the data.
- `new_field`: Name of the new field to save the operation on.
- Addtional parameters as needed by the function.
- `boundary_mask`: a 2D list of mask boundaries to do the operation on (default: None).
- `sweep`: the sweep to do the operation on (default: 0).

In addition to these functions, there are `masked_array` and `ray` variants. The masked array functions intake a numpy masked array and output a resultant masked array, while the ray variants intake a single ray and output a 1D masked array.

## Boundary Masks

Boundaries are enclosed polygons to select which areas to perform Solo II operations on. In code, they are a list of lists of flags. PySolo contains functions to load in boundaries either from file format or two lists. Either function will return a list, which may be passed into any of the functions mentioned above to perform processing on an enclosed region.

### Read Boundary From File

```py
get_boundary_mask_from_file(radar, file_path)
```

### Read Boundary From Lists

```py
get_boundary_mask_from_list(radar, x_points, y_points)
```

The x_points and y_points correspond to cartesian coordinate pairs. For instance, if `x_points = [0, 0, 20, 20]` and `y_points = [40, 80, 80, 40]`, this corresponds to a boundary with edges:
`(0, 40), (0,80), (20,80), (20, 40)`.

## Flag Operations

The functions below will work on individual rays and generate certain masks for them based on the function's behavior.
