CPT Help Home -> Specific Menu Items -> File -> Output Results -> Output Results Output ResultsMost of the results can be saved in files by using the Output Results option. This option becomes accessible only after the calculations are complete. Most results can be saved from here, although the various forecast ouputs are only available if a forecast has already been calculated. Verification results, and skill maps are available only by right-clicking on the respective results windows because these are stored in temporary memory.
File names for each of the desired outputs need to be specified. By default these files are stored in the OUTPUT subdirectory.
The formats follow standard FORTRAN formatting conventions, except that formatted direct access is not permitted. GrADS output
formats are available for maps, in which case the binary file and the control file are created with the same name. These format
conventions are not discussed in these Help Pages. It is recommended that the default settings of formatted sequential output
be used to obtain standard text (ASCII) files in which fields are separated by tabs. Formatted output files are given the .txt
file extension, and are saved in CPT version 10 format, while unformatted files are given the .dat extension. It is possible to
omit the CPT file format tags in the standard formatted output files by unchecking Options ~ Include CPT tags from the
Output Results window. The tab separator can be replaced by a space of comma by selecting the appropriate option in
Edit ~ File FOrmat, again from the Output Results window.
