Feedback regarding quickCurve script #22

Description

@astro-fermi

Dear Sir,
I was running quickCurve script and noticed an error.
"................. many lines ..........................
return lib_pyLikelihood.Optimizer_find_min(*args)
RuntimeError: Minuit abnormal termination. No convergence?
"
This suggests that the fitting could not get converged in that particular bin, may be due to faintness of the source. However, the script immediately exits the run without going to the next loop. Is it possible to amend the quickCurve script in such a manner that it should try likelihood fitting in all the loops and should not exit the process? This is also important while using this script in clusters where the submitted jobs should be of non-interactive type. I expect the script to do the fitting in all the loops and show the final results, rather than getting stuck in a particular loop and crash. Since all the outputs are logged, we can check after the completion that in which bin analysis could not converged. As you have indicated that a new version of LATAnalysisScripts is going to be released soon, I think this modification can also be implemented in the new version.

Thanks
