This file reads as follows: In the first line we see
that the units of time in this file are given in seconds.
The second and third lines contain comments that will not be ignored
by the programs of analysis because they appear in the TITLE keyword.
In the fourth and fifth lines the comments are used only for proper user's need.
In the sixth line we see that data
collection had started. Actual data starts in the
seventh line and says that event <1,1> occurred 17 seconds after
we started the recording, event <3,2> occurred 20 (17+3)
seconds after we started the recording, event <1,2> occurred
at time 31 (17+3+11) seconds, etc...
In the twenty-second line a comment that will be ignored by the programs
of analysis is inserted.
The next line tells
us that event <1,4> occurred 22 seconds after event <1,1>
(the last event before the comment was inserted) and then after additional
3 seconds a totally different kind of event, <A,C05>, occurred.
Then we get some more data, and then the last line states that
7 seconds after the last event, in this example event <1,4>
the data acquisition was stopped and this file ends.
Note that as much as we need
to know how much time elapsed from the beginning of
the recording until the first event occurred, we also
need to know how much time elapsed from the last recorded
event until we stopped our measurements.
