Viewing the Output

Viewing the raw data ".OUT"

Select [View] from the menu bar


Select [File] from the menu bar.


Select an existing file to open it. In this case "5 x 2.out", to view the summary information.
NOTE: Files with a ".OUT" extension contain the raw output data, while files with a ".TOT" contain the summary information and statistics.

Notice that the output contains a copy of the data set that was used to generate it. It also has a date and time stamp of when the calculations where run.The FEASIBLE OUTPUT: section lists the record by record output of the data.

NOTE: The viewer has a limit of 200 rows. That means if your output has more than 200 rows only the first 200 will be shown. You will have to use another program that accepts CSV "Comma Separated Values" as input, such as Excel, to view the rest.


View Summary / Statistical Information ".TOT"

Select [File] from the menu bar.


Select an existing file to open it. In this case "5 x 2.tot", to view the summary information.
NOTE: Files with a ".OUT" extension contain the raw output data, while files with a ".TOT" contain the summary information and statistics.

For the "5x2.tot" data file, the following 4 screens show the number of feasible combinations for all source increments from 0 to 1 (0 to 100%) for each source. These raw counts are used to calculate the Percent Frequency values shown in the Histogram graphs.








N = the Total Number of Observations (Total number of matching records found in the ".OUT" file)
The total of all values for MEAN should = 1.
