 * @class GCsv
 *
 * @brief Column separated values table class
 *
 * This class implements a table of std::string elements that is loaded
 * from a column separated value ASCII file. The column separation string
 * can be specified upon loading of the file (by default the class assumes
 * that elements are separated by a white space).
 *
 * The class provides operators for string element access, and methods for
 * conversion of the string values:
 *
 *    double      real    = csv.real(row,col);
 *    int         integer = csv.integer(row,col);
 *    std::string string  = csv.string(row,col);
