          Parameters
          ----------
          YAMLstring : str
-             The YAML configuration for the periodic cube basis.  The coordinates
-             are the unit square in x, y with origin at (0, 0) and maximum extent (1, 1)
-             and maximum vertical extent of -zZmax to zmax.
-             The default  parameters will wave numbers between [-6,...,6] in each
-             dimension.
