Hello Thiemo.
I updated the document. Look You the document or the document changes.
I think, for the low number values is better storing as text. Example, one reason, the RAW data have lower memory size. Example for input "1 15 85" is the test size 7 B, but in memory format would be minimal 3 input values * (minimal) 4 bytes per one value = 12 bytes. The binary dump data would be compress (for the zero bytes in RAW data) both as a text data. The text format is more human format as like to use, Example for the programmer or to use in the spreadsheet calculator.

Hello Dušan,
I find this really fascinating. Unfortunately, it looks like the article doesn't explain the proposed format. Where is the domain in the new format? What does "DAY_HOUR" mean? What's the difference between "DAY_HOUR2", "DAY2_HOUR", and "DAY2_HOUR2"? What is the file naming scheme for the new format?
Being fascinated by file formats myself I also wonder. Why not make it binary?
