Description

These are features we should add for the future.

  • Graceful failures with incorrect input files (#19). Include error message and exits the code (without a segmentation fault) when the user provides an invalid input file.

  • Improve File I/O (#24). Writing out the data seems to be a bottleneck in the code runtime, so improvements to this could speed up simulations. Additionally, the VTK outputs could be converted from ascii to binary to produce smaller output files.

  • Clean up printed output (#26). Many lines are printed to the screen - we should decide what is necessary and what should be put into an output.txt file instead.

Research direction

Start by reading the referenced issues #19, #24, and #26, since this issue groups three separate future features. Identify the scope and completion criteria for graceful invalid-file failures, faster or binary file output, and cleaner printed output; the payload names no files, tests, or entry points.
