copy_to_buffer

A class function that does more that its name suggests.

Algorithm

• Given a linked list of DigiIterators:
• For each DigiIterator it calibrates the ADC value to electron counts.
• For each DigiIterator:
  • Checks if its adc value is above thePixelThreshold and, if it is:
    • Updates the class attribute theBuffer (the actual Pixel matrix) with the pixels ADC value.
    • If the adc value is also above theSeedThreshold, the position (row & col) of the DigiIterator is stored in theSeeds array.
    • If this specific Digi has been recorded more than once (i.e. the row/col combination has already been encountered in a previous DigiIterator), the Digi is removed from theSeeds array and the ADC value of the corresponding place (coordinates) is set to 0.
