Hi Chia-Min, perhaps we should add the .write and .read methods as you did here. But the readFromFile and writeToFile functions are general for any object and are not specific to MPS. All writeToFile/readFromFile do is call the .write or .read method of whatever object is passed to them.

Also since every object in ITensor has a .read and .write method, I wasn't sure about putting them on every page for every object. Instead I was thinking of just putting a note somewhere like "every object has .read and .write". But maybe I should put this on each page too since it is a method each object does actually have.

Hi Miles, That sounds reasonable. In this case I would suggest to add a section in "In-depth Documentation" called for example "Global Utility" and put the write/read functions there, and mention that they can be called for every objects in ITensor. This may be better than put them in each page, I think. Currently the write/read examples are in Code Formulas/Running DMRG, which is less intuitive for me and I still need some time to find them. 2017-01-30 20:31 GMT-08:00 Miles <[email protected]>:
