Function Documentation

def lsst.meas.base.base.generateAlgorithmName

(

AlgClass

)

Generate a string name for an algorithm class that strips away terms that are generally redundant
while (hopefully) remaining easy to trace to the code.

The returned name will cobmine the package name, with any "lsst" and/or "meas" prefix removed,
with the class name, with any "Algorithm" suffix removed.  For instance,
lsst.meas.base.SdssShapeAlgorithm becomes "base_SdssShape".
