net.talvi.puffinplot.data.Line

public class Line
extends java.lang.Object

A container class holding all the data within a suite from a particular line number of their respective files. Intended to be used as a proxy for run number. We can't use the actual run number, because the Long Core software adds the position number to it for discrete samples. We can't correct for that because it can't write the position number to the DAT file.

This class is not currently used.
