Lookup table class.
Models a one or more dimensional lookup table for use in aerodynamics and function definitions.
The legacy 1D/2D/3D XML syntax is preserved. For 4D and higher, add independent variables with lookup="axis4", lookup="axis5", ... and nest <tableData breakPoint="..."> elements.
For a single "vector" lookup table, the format is as follows:
The lookup="row" attribute in the independentVar element is option in this case; it is assumed that the independentVar is a row variable.
A "real life" example is as shown here:
The first column in the data table represents the lookup index (or "key"). In this case, the lookup index is aero/alpha-rad (angle of attack in radians). If alpha is 0.26 radians, the value returned from the lookup table would be 0.033.
The definition for a 2D table, is as follows:
The data is in a gridded format.
A "real life" example is as shown below. Alpha in radians is the row lookup (alpha breakpoints are arranged in the first column) and flap position in degrees is
The definition for a 3D table in a coefficient would be (for example):
[Note the "breakpoint" attribute in the tableData element, above.]
Here's an example:
Example of a 4D table (outer axis is axis4, then axis3/table, row, column):
Example of a 5D table (outer axis is axis5, then axis4, axis3/table, row, column):
In addition to using a Table for something like a coefficient, where all the row and column elements are read in from a file, a Table could be created and populated completely within program code:
The first column in the table, above, is thi (the lookup index, or key). The second column is the output data - in this case, "neta" (the Greek letter referring to combustion efficiency). Later on, the table is used like this:

Read the table in.
Data in the config file should be in matrix format with the row independents as the first column and the column independents in the first row. The implication of this layout is that there should be no value in the upper left corner of the matrix e.g:
0 10 20 30 ...
-5 1 2 3 4 ...
...
For multiple-table (i.e. 3D) data sets there is an additional number key in the table definition. For example:
0.0
0 10 20 30 ...
-5 1 2 3 4 ...
...
