(Left) Plot of rms as a function of period; the spread in rms for each period value is caused by varying the phase from 0 to 2 radians. The red points are the lowest rms values for each period value.

(Right) Plot of rms as a function of phase; the spread in rms for each phase value is caused by varying the period from 0 to 1460 days. The red points are still the lowest rms values for each period (not phase) value.

(Left) As above, with a factor of 25 finer sampling in period.

(Right) As above, with a factor of 25 finer sampling in period.

(Left) Contour plot showing the distribution of rms values in period and phase.

(Right) Same contour plot, showing only the valleys (low rms values).

Same contour plot, using RGB colors to indicate high to low rms values.

(Left) Surface plot showing the distribution of rms values in period and phase.

(Right) Same surface plot, from different viewpoint.

(Left) Overplot of time and velocity data on top of best-fit sine wave.

(Right) Overplot of time and velocity data on top of second best-fit sine wave.

One good reason to care about good coding practice ...
