`hmf` is a python application that provides a flexible and simple way to calculate the
Halo Mass Function for any input cosmology, redshift, dark matter model, virial
overdensity or several other variables. Addition of further variables should be simple.

It is also the backend to `HMFcalc`, the online HMF calculator at http://hmf.icrar.org.

HISTORY
-------
1.6.0 - August 19, 2014
Completely re-worked caching module to be easier to code and faster.
New Tinker10 fit (Tinker renamed Tinker08, but Tinker still available)
Fixed all tests.
Better Cosmology class -- more input combinations available.

1.5.0 - May 08, 2014
Introduced _cache module
Extracts all caching logic to a separate module which defines
decorators -- much simpler coding!

1.4.5 - January 24, 2014
Fixed a bug on updating delta_c
Added Behroozi alias to fits
Added get_hmf function to tools.py -- easy iteration over models!
Added hmf script which provides cmd-line access to most functionality.
Changed kmax and k_per_logint back to have transfer__ prefix.
Changed default kmax and k_per_logint values a little higher for accuracy.

1.4.4 - January 23, 2014
Fixed a bug in the Tinker function (log was meant to be log10)
-- thanks to Sebastian Bocquet for pointing this out!
Updated this README
Made updating Cosmology simpler.
Added ability to change the default cosmology parameters
Fixed a bug in updating n and sigma_8 on their own (introduced in 1.4.0)
Fixed a bug when using a file for the transfer function.

1.4.3 - January 10, 2014
Changed license in setup

1.4.2 - January 10, 2014
Mocked imports of cosmolopy for setup
Cleaner imports of cosmolopy

1.4.1 - January 10,2014
Updated setup requirements and fixed a few tests

1.4.0 - January 10, 2014
Upgraded API once more.
Now Perturbations --> MassFunction
Added transfer.py which handles all k-based quantities
Upgraded docs significantly.

1.3.1 - January 06, 2014
Fixed bug in transfer read-in introduced in 1.3.0

1.3.0 - January 03, 2014
A few more documentation updates (especially tools.py)
Removed new_k_bounds function from tools.py
Added `w` parameter to cosmolopy dictionary in `cosmo.py`
Changed cosmography significantly to use cosmolopy in general
Fixed a pretty bad bug where updating h/H0 would crash the program if
only one of omegab/omegac was updated alongside it
Generally tidied up some of the update mechanisms.
API CHANGE: cosmography.py no longer exists -- I've chosen to utilise
cosmolopy more heavily here.
Added Travis CI usage
Fixed a compatibility issue with older versions of numpy in cumulative
functions

1.2.2 - December 10, 2013
Bug in "EH" transfer function call

1.2.1 - December 6, 2013
Small bugfixes to update() method

1.2.0 - December 5, 2013
Major documentation overhaul -- most docstrings are now in Sphinx/numpydoc format
Addition of cosmo module, which deals with the cosmological parameters in a cleaner way
Some tidying up of several functions.

1.1.10- October 29, 2013
Fixed bug in mltm property
Better updating -- checks if update value is actually different.
Now performs a check to see if mass range is inside fit range.

1.1.9 - October 4, 2013
Fixed some issues with n(<m) and M(<m) causing them to give NaN's

1.1.85- October 2, 2013
The normalization of the power spectrum now saved as an attribute (mostly
for use with the hod package... coming soon ;)

1.1.8 - September 19, 2013
Fixed small bug in SMT function which made it crash

1.1.7 - September 19, 2013
Updated "ST" fit to "SMT" fit to avoid confusion. "ST" is still available for now.
Now uses trapezoid rule for integration as it is faster.

1.1.6 - September 05, 2013
Modified comments to reflect parameters
Couple of bugfixes for fitting_functions.py
Included an option to use delta_halo as compared to critical rather than mean density (thanks to A. Vikhlinin and anonymous referree)
Fixed mass range of Tinker (thanks to J. Tinker and anonymous referee for this)

1.1.5 - September 03, 2013
Fixed bug in mgtm (thanks to J. Mirocha)
Fixed an embarrassing error in Reed07 fitting function
Fixed a bug in which dndlnm and its dependents (ngtm, etc..) were calculated wrong
if dndlog10m was called first.
Added a whole suite of tests against genmf that actually work
Fixed error in which for some choices of M, the whole extension in ngtm would be NAN and give error

1.1.4 - August 27, 2013
Added ability to change resolution in CAMB from hmf interface
(This requires a re-install of pycamb to the newest version on the fork)

1.1.3 - August 7, 2013
Added Behroozi Fit (thanks to P. Behroozi)

Added dependence on Delta_vir to Tinker

1.0.9 - June 19, 2013
Fixed an error with an extra ln(10) in the mass function (quoted as dn/dlnM but actually outputting dn/dlog10M)

1.0.8 - June 19, 2013
Took out log10 from cumulative mass functions
Better cumulative mass function logic

Removed mean density redshift dependence

0.9.5 - March 10, 2013
The class has been in the works for almost a year now, but it currently
