"""Factor
The Factor class holds information about an individual Factor in
Stat-Ease 360. Instances of this class are typically created by
:func:`statease.client.SEClient.get_factor`
Attributes:
name (str): the name of the factor
units (str): the units of the factor
values (tuple): the values of the factor, in run order
low (str, **read only**): the actual low that corresponds to the *coded* low (this is usually, but not necessarily, the minimum observed value)
high (str, **read only**): the actual high that corresponds to the *coded* high (this is usually, but not necessarily, the maximum observed value)
coded_low (str, **read only**): the coded low value, typically -1 or 0
coded_high (str, **read only**): the coded high value, typically 1

"""Get or set the factor values. When setting the factor values, you may use
either a list or a dictionary. If fewer values are assigned than there are rows
in the design, they will be filled in starting with first row. If a dictionary
is used, it must use integers as keys, and it will fill factor values in rows
indexed by the dictionary keys. The indices are 0-based, so the first row is
index 0, the second index 1, and so on.
:Example:
>>> # sets the first 4 rows to a list of values
>>> factor.values = [.1, .2, .3, .4]
>>> # sets the 7th through 10th rows to specific values
>>> factor.values = { 6: .1, 7: .2, 8: .3, 9: .4 }
