Parameters:

newZ - the number of scalars along the z dimension of the data set

getFileHandler

private FileHandler getFileHandler()

Returns:

the fileHandler object

setFileHandler

private void setFileHandler(FileHandler newFileHandler)

Parameters:

newFileHandler - a fileHandler object

getBreakOut

private boolean getBreakOut()

Returns:

TRUE if we are to break out of a loop

setBreakOut

private void setBreakOut(boolean trueOrFalse)

Parameters:

trueOrFalse - is TRUE if we are to break out of a loop

startReading

public boolean startReading(java.lang.String inputFileName,
                            java.lang.String outputFileName)

This method starts the reading process

Parameters:

inputFileName - the name of the input file to read

outputFileName - the name of the output file to write

Returns:

numCubesWritten return the number of cubes written

readFloat

private float readFloat()

This method reads a single floating point number from ASCII file

parseFloat

private float parseFloat()

This method parses an ASCII text floating point number

Parameters:

stream - a handle to the input stream

Returns:

float the floating point number parsed

Throws:

java.io.IOException -

validRange

private boolean validRange(double value,
                           double min,
                           double max)

Parameters:

value - the value to validate

min - the minimum allowable value

max - the maximum allowable value

Returns:
