@section{description}
SemiColonFileReader reads semi-colon delimited files into 2D arrays.
For tab delimited files use link::Classes/TabFileReader::. For comma-separated files use link::Classes/CSVFileReader::. For space-delimited files, or custom delimiters, use link::Classes/FileReader::.
@section{Examples}
@racketblock[
(
// write a test file:
f = File("SemiColonTest.sc", "w");
f.write(
"Some semi-colon delimited data;
123;;4;
0.5;0.6;0.7
"
);
f.close;
)
// open file, read and put strings into array, close file.
x = SemiColonFileReader.read("SemiColonTest.sc").postcs;
// can skip empty lines:
x = SemiColonFileReader.read("SemiColonTest.sc", true).postcs;
// can skip blank entries caused by multiple commas:
x = SemiColonFileReader.read("SemiColonTest.sc", true, true).postcs;
// do file open/close by hand if you prefer:
f = File("SemiColonTest.sc", "r"); f.isOpen;
t = SemiColonFileReader(f);
t.read;
f.close;
(
// write a test file with numbers:
f = File("SemiColonTestNum.sc", "w");

f.close;
)
x = SemiColonFileReader.read("SemiColonTestNum.sc").postcs;
x.collect(_.collect(_.interpret)); // convert to numbers.
// or you can do it immediately:
x = SemiColonFileReader.readInterpret("SemiColonTestNum.sc").postcs;
