|
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::.
|
|
|
|
Examples::
|
|
|
|
code::
|
|
(
|
|
// 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");
|
|
|
|
(1..10).do { |n| f.write(n.asString ++ ";"); };
|
|
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;
|
|
|
|
(
|
|
// write a test file with numbers:
|
|
f = File("SemiColonTestNum.sc", "w");
|
|
|
|
(1..100).do { |n|
|
|
f.write(n.asString ++ if (n % 10 != 0, $;, Char.nl)); };
|
|
f.close;
|

x = SemiColonFileReader.readInterpret("SemiColonTestNum.sc").postln;
