The other bonus would be that you actually see which matrix row and column a number corresponds to. Now you just see a series of numbers and have no idea...

Well in this issue I want to replace very large XDENS files by small files with essentially the same result. Please note that most numbers in XDENS files contribute nothing...

In the new format the order of elements will not matter.

Not for my suggested format :-)

OK now XDENS is just a sequence of numbers ``` number number ... number ``` Problems: - you need all of them but most will be tiny - you need...

Yes, this would require modifying the code reading it. The computations will of course depend on the cutoff but one does not have to use a cutoff. My suggestion only...

My long term plan is to switch input format to YAML format. I have a related project where we want to develop the next generation input parser and replace libgetkw....

And I think input and scripts is a too wide topic. I think scrips and input format are two different topics.

That page is scary but YAML is the de-factor standard input format. Easy to parse for machines, easy to write for machines, easy to write for humans, readable for humans....

Most importantly: it is a standard format. Creating own formats is not a good idea.
