Description
Hello:-)
Thank you for a cool package!
I want to insert spikes from multiple neurons into a simulation via a CSV file. How should the file be formatted? I took a look at the code in utils and io and I didn't get it:-D It looks like there's just one column 'spike times'. Where are the neuron indices stored? Or is this io for the spikes of just one neuron?
Thank you so much!
All the very best,
Maria

Research direction
Start by reading the spike-input handling in the utils and io code, focusing on the CSV representation and the 'spike times' column. Determine whether the current format supports multiple neurons and where neuron indices belong; done means the supported format and usage are clearly documented.
