sread#
- Mapdl.sread(strarray='', fname='', ext='', nchar='', nskip='', nread='', **kwargs)#
Reads a file into a string array parameter.
APDL Command:
*SREAD
- Parameters:
- strarray
Name of the “string array” parameter which will hold the read file. String array parameters are similar to character arrays, but each array element can be as long as 128 characters. If the string parameter does not exist, it will be created. The array will be created as:
*DIM,StrArray,STRING,nChar,nRead`
- fname
File name and directory path (248 characters maximum, including the characters needed for the directory path). An unspecified directory path defaults to the working directory; in this case, you can use all 248 characters for the file name.
- ext
Filename extension (eight-character maximum).
- nchar
Number of characters per line to read (default is length of the longest line in the file).
- nskip
Number of lines to skip at the start of the file (default is 0).
- nread
Number of lines to read from the file (default is the entire file).
Notes
The
*SREAD
command reads from a file into a string array parameter. The file must be an ASCII text file.
