Arguments


Inputs
absrelvalue	Region type value
	allowed:	int
	Default:	0 Integer - 1, 2, 3, 4

Example

- r = rg.box(blc=[3,40], trc=[80,90])   # Create region
- v = r.get(’arblc’)                    # Get absrel value vector for blc
- for i in range( len(v) ):
+    print rg.absreltype(v[i])          # Print string conversion for each axis
-
