• description: sddsmatrix2column transfers a matrix into a single-column SDDS file.
• examples:
      sddsmatrix2column matrix.sdds column.sdds  
      sddsmatrix2column matrix.sdds column.sdds -rowNameColumn=Label -dataColumnName=Value -rootnameColumnName=ID -majorOrder=row  
      

• synopsis:
      sddsmatrix2column [inputfile] [outputfile] [-pipe=[input][,output]]  
        [-rowNameColumn=string] [-dataColumnName=string]  
        [-rootnameColumnName=string] [-majorOrder=row|column]  
      

• files:
  • inputfile Contains an optional string column and multiple numerical columns. If the string column or -rowNameColumn is not provided, Row<row_index> will be used as row names in the output file.
  • outputfile Contains two columns: a string column and a data column. The string column combines the input string column (or Row<row_index>) and the input data column names.
• switches:
  • -pipe=[input][,output] — Standard SDDS pipe option for reading/writing from stdin/stdout.
  • -rowNameColumn=<string> — Column name for row names in the input file. If not provided, Row<row_index> will be used.
  • -dataColumnName=<string> — Column name of the data column in the output file. Defaults to Rootname.
  • -rootnameColumnName=<string> — Column name of the string column in the output file.
  • -majorOrder=row|column — Specifies the binary SDDS layout.
