CommentedHeader
[source]¶ Bases:
astropy.io.ascii.Basic
Character-delimited table with column names in a comment line.
When reading,
header_start
can be used to specify the line index of column names, and it can be a negative index (for example -1 for the last commented line). The default delimiter is the <space> character.This matches the format produced by
np.savetxt()
, withdelimiter=','
, andheader='<comma-delimited-column-names-list>'
.Example:
# col1 col2 col3 # Comment line 1 2 3 4 5 6
