Under formatted input (to repeat, not recommended) three standard options are provided with default formats as follows:
Options |
|
Format: |
1. |
SEQUENTIAL ROWS AND COLUMNS ONLY |
2I5, FI5 |
2. |
NAMED ROWS AND COLUMNS ONLY |
2I6, FI5.6 |
3. |
BOTH SEQUENTIAL AND NAMED ZONES |
2I5, 2I6, F15.6 |
For example under option 2 a line:
11 22 6.00
would imply a cell element of 6.00 for row (origin) 11 and column (destination) 22, both 11 and 22 being zone “names” which would need to be converted into sequential numbers.
Under option 1 the same line would imply the cell would be the 22nd column in the 11th row without any reference to the associated zone names.
Under option 3 the same cell might be specified by:
11 22 61 94 6.000000
where sequential row 11 is zone 61 and sequential column 22 is zone 94. This method clearly requires “internal consistency” such that sequential row/column 11 is always associated with zone 61 etc.
