The first unsigned integer -- `num_floats` -- - indicates the number of floating point columns per row, and the second - unsigned integer -- `num_ints` -- indicates the number of signed - integer values per row. -* The remaining lines contain data rows. Each row consists of - `num_floats` floating point numbers, followed by `num_ints` signed - integer values. +* Each line is a row. +* Each row consists of one or more columns, delimited by a space. +* Columns are floating point or integer values. +* The first row is called the header row. +* The header row contains two unsigned integer columns which indicate + the layout of the remaining rows. +* The first header row column indicates the number of floating + point columns per row (`num_floats`). +* The second header row column indicates the number of integer + columns per row (`num_ints`). +* The remaining rows contain `num_floats` floating point + columns, followed by `num_ints` signed integer columns.
