DEPTH = .2000
TIME = 100000

To use this input file, simply include example.dat at the DOS command line. To save the results, redirect the output to a file:

C:\4SIGHT\4SIGHT EXAMPLE.DAT >EXAMPLE.OUT

In this example, the output is stored in EXAMPLE.OUT, an ASCII file which can be imported into any spreadsheet program.

NOTE: This calculation required 90 seconds to complete on a personal computer equipped with a 80486 microprocessor operating at 66MHz.
