TableData Reading First Element as String

anthony_pisano

I'm writing a feature to read in a CSV of airfoil data points and plot them on a plane. When reading my CSV the import appears to be formatting the first element of the file as a sting. I have looked at the file, it's not formatted that way in excel or .txt editors. It seems to be local to this. Generically my code is:

annotation { "Name" : "Airfoil points" }<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; definition.AFfile is TableData;

debug(context, definition.AFfile, DebugColor.RED);<br>const points = mapArray(definition.AFfile.csvData, function(row) {<br>            // map CSV columns 0, 1 to a vector of X, Y<br>            return vector(row[0], row[1]);<br>        });<br>        debug(context, points, DebugColor.RED);

Both debug points show the element being a string. I cannot figure out why!

I apologize for the formatting of the code snippet. I also can't seem to change that using the formatting choice so here it is again as basic text.

annotation { "Name" : "Airfoil points" }
        definition.AFfile is TableData;

debug(context, definition.AFfile, DebugColor.RED);

const points = mapArray(definition.AFfile.csvData, function(row) {
            // map CSV columns 0, 1 to a vector of X, Y
            return vector(row[0], row[1]);
        });

        debug(context, points, DebugColor.RED);
