 In contrast to the ISI-profile, a SPIKE-profile is a piece-wise *linear* function and thusly represented by a :code:`PieceWiseLinFunc` object.
 Just like the :code:`PieceWiseconstFunc` for the ISI-profile, the :code:`PieceWiseLinFunc` provides a :code:`get_plottable_data` member function that returns array that can be used directly to plot the function.
 Furthermore, the :code:`avrg` member function returns the average of the profile defined as the overall SPIKE distance.
-As above, you can provide an interval as a pair of floats to :code:`avrg` to specify the averaging interval if required.
