ASCII format

We shall find the equation that best fits the points in columns 1 and 3 of Table 1-3 with TableCurve. On opening TableCurve, one is presented with a blank desktop with several commands at the top. The command to enter data is not Enter but Edit. Two formats are available, the TableCurve editor and the ASCII editor. The TableCurve format is probably a little simpler than the ASCII format, but they are both fairly self-evident and either should yield a data file resembling the data... 

If the user has a favorite evaluation program that he knows how to operate, he may use FIT2D as a converter program only - or he may directly resort to a standalone format converter program. Converters which output at least human-readable ASCII format are frequently available at synchrotron radiation facilities - and ASCII file import should be supported by any reasonable program. 

All programs use input and output files (experimental and simulated spectra) consisting of 1024 amplitude values in a single column in ASCII format. If you have experimental files in a different format, then you must first modify them. A program is included to change from n to 1024 points. 

A file with the complete volume indexes Vols.22 (1972) through 169 (1994) in delimited ASCII format is available for downloading at no charge from the Springer EARN mailbox. Delimited ASCII format can be imported into most databanks. 

When creating an electronic resume to be saved and submitted in an ASCII format, follow these formatting guidelines ... 

If you re using Microsoft Word to create your resume and then save it in ASCII format, use the "Save As" feature found under the File pull-down menu. When asked for the "Save As Type" (under the filename), choose "Text Only." If your document contains special formatting, or symbols such as bullets, you may be asked if you want the software to fix your document and edit it so it fits properly into the ASCII format. Choose "Yes" to ensure your document will be easily readable. Much of the formatting will be lost, so you should review and edit the text file yourself. 

Once you ve entered all of the information within the resume template, you can save the document just as you would any other Word document. Move the cursor to the File pull-down menu and click on the Save option. You can then enter a filename and choose the file format in which you want your resume saved. The default option is in Word format, but you can also save the file in Text Rich Format, Text Only Format (ASCII), formats compatible with older versions of Word, or as a WordPerfect file. Printing the document is as easy as selecting the Print option from the File pull-down menu. 

With the Paste command any contents (ASCII format, bitmap, metafile) from the clipboard may be copied into one of the 2D WIN-NMR windows. 

Determine appropriate storage medium for archived materials (e.g., ASCII format files, printed records stored to microfiche, etc.). 

During the course of an inspection, it must be possible to provide the inspector with a full and correct copy of the electronic record, both in electronic form and in paper form (human readable form). If it is not possible to evaluate the requested electronic record without the corresponding application, then the inspector or agency should be consulted to determine the action to be taken in each individual simation. Another option for human readable form is saving the data in ASCII format. 

Figure 3.4. The overall view of a powder diffractometer. The radiation enclosure is opened to expose the goniometer, which rests on top of the high voltage power supply. The computer on the right is used to manage and control data collection and to carry out preliminary processing of the data, e.g. conversion from a software-specific binary to ASCII format.

The files arkona wind lh.zip and arkona wind 6h.zip have a plain ASCII format with the columns year, month, day, hour, speed, angle, xcomp, ycomp. Data were provided by the German Weather Service (DWD) for the periods 1951-1990 (6h readings) and 1991-2005 (1 h readings). 

The light vessel was operated by the Royal Danish Administration of Navigation and Hydrography. The readings comprise temperature and salinity at one to four depth levels, stored in ASCII format. 

The National Institutes of Health (NIH Ref. 5) offers over 12 miUion research papers mainly in the biomedical sciences that are available through the National Library of Medicine. This free database allows downloads of abstracts in an ASCII format for direct placement into programs like Microsoft Word to develop a comprehensive bibliography. 

Data was transferred from SAS transport file to ASCII format using StatTransfer. Final data sets for the consequent analysis were saved in S-Plus data structure. 

Agents provide an interface to plug in different types of converters. File converters translate data from instrument vendor-specific or indnstry-standard formats into native or human-readable formats. Common indnstry standardized formats are, for instance, JCAMP (e.g., DX, JDX, CS), ANDI, AIA, NetCDF, MDL Molflle and related formats (e.g., SD, SDF), ASCII formats (ASC, TXT, CSV), and XML-based formats. Most of the commercially available instrument software can import or export one of these formats. Conversion can either be done using an implemented converter in the application server of the target software or by specifying an executable for streaming conversion.
