__init__(self, source)
(Constructor)

source code 
Read sensor locations from file.
Parameters:
  • source - If values is given as a string all data is read from the file and additonal keyword arguments can be sued to customize the read procedure. If a dictionary is passed a deepcopy is performed.
  • header - Indicates whether the column names should be read from the first line (header=True). If header=False unique column names will be generated (see class docs). If header is a python list, it's content is used as column header names and its length has to match the number of columns in the file.
  • sep - Separator string. The actual meaning depends on the output format (see class docs).
  • headersep - Separator string used in the header. The actual meaning depends on the output format (see class docs).
  • dtype - Desired datatype(s). Datatype per column get be specified by passing a list of types.
  • skiplines - Number of lines to skip at the beginning of the file.
Returns:
new empty dictionary

Overrides: object.__init__
