Abstract:

This document describes a translator that converts a comma-separated value format file into a Z-data ASCII American standard code for information exchange format. Called CsvtoZdata, the translator is software tailored to work within the Casualty Reduction CASRED model tool set. CASRED is a U.S. Army item-level lethality and survivability performance model that calculates the probability of personnel incapacitation, given a hit. This document describes CsvtoZdata, its options, and input but does not address CASRED.
