UnitReaderClass

Read from a file a list of units terminated by @@@@@.

class nmcog.spinnaker.associate.nealassoc.readUnitFile.UnitReaderClass

Note:

• Unlike implementation by Chris Huyck et al. nmcog does not use this class to read .txt file
• The structured data are created within the working class.
• However, the reading ability of UnitReaderClass has not been disabled therefore it can still be used like Chris Huyck et al.
• Although, in the current implementation of any class within nmcog creates its structured data the reason UnitReaderClass is because of some original scripts (Chris Huyck et al.) within nmcog that invokes methods (like the getUnitNumber()) within this class whose internal has instantiated attributes.
