====== PatternMonitor ======


A PatternMonitor reads  the firing rates of subpopulations of neurons in a [[NeuronGroup]] as specified in a [[pat|pattern file]] and writes multicolumn text output to a [[pact]] file.

===== Example and Usage =====

<code cpp>
PatternMonitor * patmon 
   = new PatternMonitor(neurons_e,
                        outputfile,
                        patternfile,
                        100);
</code>

This snipped of code defines a PatternMonitor ''patmon'' which is associated with a [[NeuronGroup]] ''neurons_e''. Its output is written to ''outputfile'' and as a third argument it expects a [[pat]] file which specifies one or multiple subpopulations of neurons within ''neurons_e''. The number ''100'' specifies the maximum number of patterns to load from ''patternfile''. If it is omitted [[PatternMonitor]] will only read the first 10 to not clutter the output file with too many columns. The constructor accepts one additional parameter which controls the sampling interval which per default is set to 100ms.
