Explanations

These are developer-focused explanations of internal pylcm mechanisms. They are designed for contributors and advanced users who want to understand how pylcm works under the hood.

• Parameters Workflow — How to specify parameters at model, regime, and function levels.

• Function Representation — What the function representation does and how it works.

• Dispatchers — How pylcm’s dispatchers work.

• Interpolation and Extrapolation — How pylcm’s coordinate finders and map_coordinates handle interpolation and extrapolation across grid types.

• The Transition System — How state transitions, regime transitions, and per-boundary mappings work internally.
