Scientific notation in txt file creates issues without warning #87

Closed markhalonen closed 3 years ago

markhalonen commented 4 years ago

any text file with scientifc notation in the numbers

markhalonen commented 4 years ago

Can compute stress and strain, but not strain rate.

markhalonen commented 4 years ago

perhaps dividing by zero somewhere on derivative

This was a weird issue, like it only caused the strain rate graph to be weird... it was fixable by using excel to save w/o sci units. Not able to reproduce

From Luke

87: This issue was occurring with scientific notation in txt files, so I converted all of the data files to decimal and the problem went away. However, when I convert them back to reproduce the problem I can’t get it to repeat so I would say ignore this one for now. It may only be a specific excel export instance that was causing the issue that I can’t repeat. If it pops up again I be sure to make a copy of the files before I start overwriting them.
