Data Acquisition
================

The Learning Wizard reads data directly from a text for the learning:

Plain Text Files
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

The plain text files must conform to a certain standard:

* Each line in the file must consist of a list of values
* The values must be separated by a separator, with the default separator being ",".
* All lines must contain the same number of values
* Missing values are indicated by an empty entry

A sample data file could be:

| field1,field2,field3 
| true,true,false
| true,true,
| false,false,true
| false,true,false
| false,,false

Using this datafile will result in a model with three nodes named: field1, field2, and field3. Each node will contain the states: true, false.
