Abstract

DMelt library provides many classes and methods for file input and output (I/O) beyond those discussed in Sect. 2.15. Many of them are implemented using external Java libraries that contain nearly every data format you might ever need to use for efficient data storage and processing. File I/O, data streaming and format conversions are essential for any stage of data analysis. Unfortunately, in the standard manuals and tutorials, details of file I/O often are buried at the back. In this book, we will discuss the I/O topic in great detail in the context of data analysis and numeric computation.
