# bdm::CsvFileDS Class Reference

CSV file data storage The constructor creates `Data` matrix from the records in a CSV file `fname`. The orientation can be of two types: 1. `BY_COL` which is default - the data are stored in columns; one column per time , one row per data item. 2. `BY_ROW` if the data are stored the classical CSV style. Then each column stores the values for data item, for ex. , one row for each discrete time instant. More...
