Writes data to a csv file.
blockType: ToCsv

Description
The To CSV block writes its input values to a csv file. The block writes data to the output file incrementally, with minimal memory consumption during the simulation. If an output file exists when the simulation runs, it will be overwritten. The file is automatically closed when you pause the simulation or when the simulation terminates. If the simulation terminates abnormally, the To CSV block retains the data it has logged up to the point of abnormal termination.
The To CSV block icon shows the name of the output file.

# File name — path or file name
Details
Specify the path or filename of the csv file in which to save the data. If the file exists, it will be overwritten.
It is allowed to specify both absolute path to the file (starts with /user) and relative path. The relative path is defined from the current directory (pwd).
It is also possible to specify only the file name. In this case Engee will search for a file with this name first in the relative path (i.e. in the current directory) and then in the search paths: Engee path editor.
