Alias: none
Argument(s): none

An annotated tabular file is a whitespace-separated text file with one leading header row of comments/column labels. For experiment data files, each subsequent row contains an experiment ID, followed by data for configuration variables, observations, and/or observation errors, depending on context.
Default Behavior
By default, Dakota imports tabular experiment data files in annotated format. The annotated
keyword can be used to explicitly specify this.
