=head2 rcols()

=for ref

Read ASCII whitespaced cols from a file into piddles and perl arrays
(also see L</rgrep()>).

There are two calling conventions - the old version, where
a pattern can be specified after the filename/handle, and the new
version where options are given as as hash reference. This 
reference can be given as either the second or last argument.

The default behaviour is to ignore lines beginning with a # character
and lines that only consist of whitespace. Options exist to only read
from lines that match, or do not match, supplied patterns, and
to set the types of the created piddles.

Can take file name or *HANDLE, and if no columns are specified, 
all are assumed. For the allowed types, see
L<PDL::Core/Datatype_conversions>.

Options:

EXCLUDE or IGNORE
- ignore lines matching this pattern (default B<'/^#/'>).

INCLUDE or KEEP
- only use lines which match this pattern (default B<''>).

LINES   
- which line numbers to use. Line numbers start at 0 and the syntax 
is 'a:b:c' to use every c'th matching line between a and b
(default B<''>).

DEFTYPE
- default data type for stored data (if not specified, use the type 
stored in C<$PDL::IO::Misc::deftype>, which starts off as B<double>).

TYPES
- reference to an array of data types, one element for each column 
to be read in.
Any missing columns use the DEFTYPE value (default B<[]>).

PERLCOLS
- an array of column numbers which are to be read into perl arrays
rather than piddles. References to these arrays are returned after
the requested piddles (default B<undef>).

=for usage

  Usage:
    ($x,$y,...) = rcols( *HANDLE|"filename", { EXCLUDE => '/^!/' }, 
                         $col1, $col2, ... )
    ($x,$y,...) = rcols( *HANDLE|"filename", $col1, $col2, ..., 
                         { EXCLUDE => '/^!/' } )
    ($x,$y,...) = rcols( *HANDLE|"filename", "/foo/", $col1, $col2, ... )
 
e.g.,

=for example

  $x      = PDL->rcols 'file1';
  ($x,$y) = rcols *STDOUT;

  # read in lines containing the string foo, where the first
  # example also ignores lines that with a # character.
  ($x,$y,$z) = rcols 'file2', 0,4,5, { INCLUDE => '/foo/' };
  ($x,$y,$z) = rcols 'file2', 0,4,5, 
                 { INCLUDE => '/foo/', EXCLUDE => '' };

  # ignore the first 27 lines of the file, reading in as ushort's
  ($x,$y) = rcols 'file3', { LINES => '27:-1', DEFTYPE => ushort };
  ($x,$y) = rcols 'file3', 
              { LINES => '27:', TYPES => [ ushort, ushort ] };

  # read in the first column as a perl array and the next two as piddles
  ($x,$y,$name) = rcols 'file4', 1, 2, { PERLCOLS => [ 0 ] };
  printf "Number of names read in = %d\n", 1 + $#$name;

Notes:

1. Quotes are required on patterns.

2. Columns are separated by whitespace by default,
use C<$PDL::IO::Misc::colsep> to specify an alternate
separator.

3. For PDL-2.003, the meaning of the 'c' value in the LINES option has
changed: it now only counts matching lines rather than all lines as in
previous versions of PDL. 

4. LINES => '-1:0:3' may not work as you expect, since lines are skipped
when read in, then the whole array reversed.

=cut

use vars qw/ $colsep $deftype /;

$colsep = " ";      # Default column separator

# NOTE: XXX
#  need to look at the line-selection code. For instance, if want
#   lines => '-1:0:3', 
#  read in all lines, reverse, then apply the step
#  -> fix point 4 above
# 
# perhaps should just simplify the LINES option - ie remove
# support for reversed arrays?

=head2 wcols()

=for ref

Write ASCII whitespaced cols into file from piddles efficiently.

If no columns are specified all are assumed.
Will optionally only process lines matching a pattern.
Can take file name or *HANDLE, and
if no file/filehandle is given defaults to STDOUT.

Options:

HEADER
- prints this string before the data. If the string
is not terminated by a newline, one is added
(default B<''>).

=for usage

 Usage: wcols $piddle1, $piddle2,..., *HANDLE|"outfile", [\%options];

e.g.,

=for example

  wcols $x, $y+2, 'foo.dat';
  wcols $x, $y+2, *STDERR;
  wcols $x, $y+2, '|wc';
  wcols $a,$b,$c; # Orthogonal version of 'print $a,$b,$c' :-)

  wcols "%10.3f", $a,$b; # Formatted
  wcols "%10.3f %10.5g", $a,$b; # Individual column formatting

  wcols $a,$b, { HEADER => "#   a   b" };

Note: columns are separated by whitespace by default,
use $PDL::IO::Misc::colsep to specify an alternate
separator.

=for ref

generate string list from C<sprintf> format specifier and a list of piddles

C<swcols> takes an (optional) format specifier of the printf sort and a list
of 1d piddles as input. It returns a perl array (or array reference if
called in
scalar context) where
each element of the array is the string generated by printing the
corresponding element of the piddle(s) using the format specified. If
no format is specified it uses the default print format.

=for usage

 Usage: @str = swcols format, pdl1,pdl2,pdl3,...;
  or

e.g.

=for example

=head2 rasc()

=for ref

Simple function to slurp in ASCII
numbers quite quickly, although error handling is marginal (to
nonexistent).

=for usage

  $pdl->rasc("filename"|FILEHANDLE [,$noElements]);
      Where:
        filename is the name of the ASCII file to read or
          open file handle
        $noElements is the optional number of elements in the file to read.
            (If not present, all of the file will be read to fill up $pdl).
        $pdl can be of type float or double for more precision.

=for example

  #  (test.num is an ascii file with 20 numbers. One number per line.)
  $in = PDL->null;
  $num = 20;
  $in->rasc('test.num',20);
  $imm = zeroes(float,20,2);

=head2 rcube

=for ref

Read list of files directly into a large data cube (for efficiency)

=for usage

 $cube = rcube \&reader_function, @files;

=for example

 $cube = rcube \&rfits, glob("*.fits");

This IO function allows direct reading of files into a large data cube,
Obviously one could use cat() but this is more memory efficient.

The reading function (e.g. rfits, readfraw) (passed as a reference)
and files are the arguments.

The cube is created as the same X,Y dims and datatype as the first
image specified. The Z dim is simply the number of images.

=cut

    my $reader = shift;

    barf "Usage: blah" unless ref($reader) eq "CODE";
