Example Code for Reading "Short" ProCoDA Datalogs #6

Open HannahSi opened 5 years ago

HannahSi commented 5 years ago

Currently, the example data analysis code for reading ProCoDA files only addresses data files whose names are generated from the date (so that experiments can be run overnight without overwriting the previous day's data). We'll also need examples for reading the shorter data files with custom file names.

@monroews Are there names for these shorter, custom named data files from ProCoDA and for the long, automatically ones?

I discuss these different methods of data logging here. I don't have names for two systems. Long term vs short term? With or without statelogs?

Thank you for textbook section explaining the two methods! I don't have formal names to suggest currently, but I'll add example code for reading the short term data files. These will simply use the column_of_time and column_of_data functions in aguaclara.research.procoda_parser.

I'm considering restructuring the newer functions I wrote in procoda_parser to reflect these different logging methods. I'll write about this in another issue.
