"""Example 8: Uncertain Models
UncertainFlorisModel is a class that adds uncertainty to the inflow wind direction
on the FlorisModel class. The UncertainFlorisModel class is interacted with in the
same manner as the FlorisModel class is. This example demonstrates how the
wind farm power production is calculated with and without uncertainty.
Other use cases of UncertainFlorisModel are, e.g., comparing FLORIS to
historical SCADA data and robust optimization.
For more details on using uncertain models, see further examples within the
examples_uncertain directory.
