## Public Member Functions
void | getdata (vec &dt)
| Returns full vector of observed data=[output, input].
void | getdata (vec &dt, const ivec &indices)
| Returns data records at indeces.
int | ndat ()

virtual void | write (vec &ut, const ivec &indeces)
| Accepts action variables at specific indeces.
void | step ()
| Moves from to , i.e. perfroms the actions and reads response of the system.

## Member Function Documentation

void bdm::MemDS::from_setting | ( | const Setting & | set | ) | `[inline, virtual, inherited]`

Create object from the following structure

                    { class = "MemDS";
                       Data = (...);            // Data matrix or data vector
                       --- optional ---
                       drv = {class="RV"; ...} // Identification how rows of the matrix Data will be known to others
                       time = 0;               // Index of the first column to user_info,
                       rowid = [1,2,3...];     // ids of rows to be used
                    }

If the optional fields are not given, they will be filled as follows:

                    rowid= [0, 1, 2, ...number_of_rows_of_Data];
                    drv = {names=("ch0", "ch1", "ch2", ..."number_of_rows_of_Data");
                          sizes=( 1    1    1 ...);
                              times=( 0    0    0 ...);
                              };
                    time = 0;

If `rowid` is given, `drv` will be named after indeces in rowids.

Hence the data provided by method `getdata()` will be full column of matrix Data starting from the first record.

Reimplemented from bdm::root.

Reimplemented in bdm::ITppFileDS, and bdm::mxArrayDS.
