slmsuite.holography.analysis.files

Utilities for interfacing with files. This includes helper functions for naming directories without conflicts, and convenience wrappers for file writing. slmsuite uses the HDF5 filetype (.h5) by default, as it is fast, compact, and widely supported by programming languages for scientific computing. This uses the h5py module.
