| + | This code exports a 2-dimensional population TOOL object (by age, by time) to a csv file with age in the rows and time in the columns. | ||

| + | |||
| + | ===== tab delimited text odometer (block) format ===== | ||
| + | This format is useful for migrating data between models in a human-readable format, as opposed to binary //tool//-format files. Note the use of ''expForm'' and ''decimals'' parameters to preserve precision. | ||

| + | export (immigration[s,ts1,a]; dataFormat=odometer, fileFormat=text, \ | ||
