The data set file

The data set file is pure ASCII text file. One row contains one record. There is at least one row in the file.

A record contains at least three positive or negative decimal numbers separated with one or more spaces. The values are consecutive in time, and there is no time stamps for the values. A dot is used as a decimal separator. A number doesn't necessarily have to contain a decimal separator.

Particularly, the program must be able to read the data file in reference $[5]$.
