Heracles — Harmonic-space statistics on the sphere

This is Heracles, a code for harmonic-space statistics on the sphere. Heracles can take catalogues of positions a function values on the sphere and turn them into wonderful things like angular power spectra and mixing matrices.

Heracles is both a Python library, to be used in notebooks or data processing pipelines, and a tool for running measurements from the command line using a configuration file. To jump right in, see Getting started, Using Heracles from Python, and Using the Heracles CLI.
