write_pruned_synapse_locations¶

single_cell_parser.writer.write_pruned_synapse_locations(fname=None, synapses=None, cellID=None)¶

Write a .syn file with a pruned flag.

.syn files contain a cell’s synapses with the locations coded by section ID and section x of cell with ID “cellID” and a pruned flag (1 or 0).

See also:

• .syn for more information on the .syn file format.

• single_cell_parser.reader.read_pruned_synapse_realization() for the corresponding reader function.

• write_cell_synapse_locations() for a similar function that does not include a pruned flag.

Parameters:¶

• fname (str) – The name of the file to write to.

• synapses (dict) – A dictionary of synapses (see read_pruned_synapse_locations()).

• cellID (str) – The ID of the cell.

Returns:¶

None. Writes out the synapse location file to fname.
