 Binary spike raster files provide a significant speed advantage over regular [[ras]] files because the output does not need to be formatted to ASCII output. The files can be later converted to the standard ras format using [[aube]] or by any other custom written analysis software. From an analysis point of view binary raster files are advantageous because they allow quick access (bisect) to any time point or range within the file. ASCII based [[ras]] files need to be read sequentially from the beginning which quickly becomes arduous for large files when one is only interested in the activity in a small part towards the end of the file. Finally, binary spike raster files are smaller in size and can be compressed even more efficiently than regular [[ras]] files. Binary spike raster files provide a significant speed advantage over regular [[ras]] files because the output does not need to be formatted to ASCII output.
