    for prior uncertainty analyses only.  The derived types
    (pyemu.Schur, pyemu.ErrVar, pyemu.MonteCarlo, pyemu.EnsembleSmoother)
    are for different forms of posterior uncertainty analyses. This class
    tries hard to not load items until they are needed; all arguments are
    optional

    Parameters
    ----------
    jco : (varies)
        something that can be cast or loaded into a pyemu.Jco.  Can be a
        str for a filename or pyemu.Matrix/pyemu.Jco object.
    pst : (varies)
        something that can be cast into a pyemu.Pst.  Can be an str for a
        filename or an existing pyemu.Pst.  If None, a pst filename is sought
        with the same base name as the jco argument (if passed)
    parcov : (varies)
        prior parameter covariance matrix.  If str, a filename is assumed and
        the prior parameter covariance matrix is loaded from a file using
        the file extension.  If None, the prior parameter covariance matrix is
        constructed from the parameter bounds in the control file represented
        by the pst argument. Can also be a pyemu.Cov instance
    obscov : (varies)
        observation noise covariance matrix. If str, a filename is assumed and
        the observation noise covariance matrix is loaded from a file using
        the file extension.  If None, the observation noise covariance matrix is
        constructed from the weights in the control file represented
        by the pst argument. Can also be a pyemu.Cov instance
    predictions : (varies)
        prediction (aka forecast) sensitivity vectors.  If str, a filename
        is assumed and predictions are loaded from a file using the file extension.
        Can also be a pyemu.Matrix instance, a numpy.ndarray or a collection
        of pyemu.Matrix or numpy.ndarray.
    ref_var : (float)
        reference variance
    verbose : (either bool or string)
        controls log file / screen output.  If str, a filename is assumed and
            and log file is written to verbose

    the class makes heavy use of property decorator to encapsulate

    """The base/parent class for linear analysis.

    Args:
        jco (varies, optional): something that can be cast or loaded into a `pyemu.Jco`.  Can be a
            str for a filename or `pyemu.Matrix`/`pyemu.Jco` object.
        pst (varies, optional): something that can be cast into a `pyemu.Pst`.  Can be an `str` for a
            filename or an existing `pyemu.Pst`.  If `None`, a pst filename is sought
            with the same base name as the jco argument (if passed)
        parcov (varies, optional): prior parameter covariance matrix.  If `str`, a filename is assumed and
            the prior parameter covariance matrix is loaded from a file using
            the file extension (".jcb"/".jco" for binary, ".cov"/".mat" for PEST-style ASCII matrix,
            or ".unc" for uncertainty files).  If `None`, the prior parameter covariance matrix is
            constructed from the parameter bounds in `LinearAnalysis.pst`.  Can also be a `pyemu.Cov` instance
        obscov (varies, optional): observation noise covariance matrix.  If `str`, a filename is assumed and
            the noise covariance matrix is loaded from a file using
            the file extension (".jcb"/".jco" for binary, ".cov"/".mat" for PEST-style ASCII matrix,
            or ".unc" for uncertainty files).  If `None`, the noise covariance matrix is
            constructed from the obsevation weights in `LinearAnalysis.pst`.  Can also be a `pyemu.Cov` instance
        forecasts (varies, optional): forecast sensitivity vectors.  If `str`, first an observation name is assumed (a row
            in `LinearAnalysis.jco`).  If that is not found, a filename is assumed and predictions are
            loaded from a file using the file extension.  If [`str`], a list of observation names is assumed.
            Can also be a `pyemu.Matrix` instance, a `numpy.ndarray` or a collection
            of `pyemu.Matrix` or `numpy.ndarray`.
        ref_var (float, optional): reference variance.  Default is 1.0
        verbose (`bool`): controls screen output.  If `str`, a filename is assumed and
                and log file is written.
        sigma_range (`float`, optional): defines range of upper bound - lower bound in terms of standard
            deviation (sigma). For example, if sigma_range = 4, the bounds represent 4 * sigma.
            Default is 4.0, representing approximately 95% confidence of implied normal distribution.
            This arg is only used if constructing parcov from parameter bounds.
        scale_offset (`bool`, optional): flag to apply parameter scale and offset to parameter bounds
            when calculating prior parameter covariance matrix from bounds.  This arg is onlyused if
            constructing parcov from parameter bounds.Default is True.

    Note:

        Can be used directly, but for prior uncertainty analyses only.

        The derived types (`pyemu.Schur`, `pyemu.ErrVar`) are for different
        forms of FOMS-based posterior uncertainty analyses.

        This class tries hard to not load items until they are needed; all arguments are optional.

        The class makes heavy use of property decorator to encapsulated private attributes
