FlagCollection

class astropy.nddata.FlagCollection(*args, **kwargs)

Bases: dict

The purpose of this class is to provide a dictionary for containing arrays of flags for the NDData class. Flags should be stored in Numpy arrays that have the same dimensions as the parent data, so the FlagCollection class adds shape checking to a dictionary.

The FlagCollection should be initialized like a dict, but with the addition of a shape= keyword argument used to pass the NDData shape.
