Beam Interface
==============

The BeamInterface object is designed to provide a unified interface for UVBeam
and AnalyticBeam objects to compute beam response values. It can be constructed
with either a :class:`pyuvdata.UVBeam` or :class:`AnalyticBeam` and it provides
the :meth:`pyuvdata.BeamInterface.compute_response` method, which can be used to
either evaluate the response of an AnalyticBeam or interpolate a UVBeam to get
the beam response. This interface provides a simplified way for simulators to
get beam responses from either UVBeams or analytic beams with the same code.
