finesse.tracing.tools.handle_symbolic(*args, symbolic: tuple | bool, simplify: bool, sym_func: Callable, num_func: Callable)[source]¶

Handles logic for the ‘symbolic’ argument for propagate_beam() and compute_abcd().

Parameters

symbolictuple | bool: If True or a tuple, returns a symbolic equation. If tuple, only returns symbolic equation with symbols in the tuple. Else returns numeric.
simplifybool: Wether to simplify the symbolics
sym_funcCallable: Function to call for symbolic solution
num_funcCallable: Function to call for numeric solution
