Algorithm

\begin{itemize}
\item[1.] Get source time serie.
\item[2.] Check time serie integrity.
\item[3.] Get original event list.
\item[4.] Check events list integrity.
\item[5.] Create time binning.
\item[6.] Apply relative corrections to source time serie.
\item[7.] Calculate errors.
\item[8.] Create corrected light curve.
\end{itemize}
