Read a matrix from the source where each line (separated by `eol`) gives one row, with
elements separated by the given delimiter. The source can be a text file, stream or byte
array. Memory mapped files can be used by passing the byte array representation of the
mapped segment as source.
If `T` is a numeric type, the result is an array of that type, with any non-numeric elements
as `NaN` for floating-point types, or zero. Other useful values of `T` include
`String`, `AbstractString`, and `Any`.
If `header` is `true`, the first row of data will be read as header and the tuple
`(data_cells, header_cells)` is returned instead of only `data_cells`.
Specifying `skipstart` will ignore the corresponding number of initial lines from the input.
If `skipblanks` is `true`, blank lines in the input will be ignored.
If `use_mmap` is `true`, the file specified by `source` is memory mapped for potential
speedups. Default is `true` except on Windows. On Windows, you may want to specify `true` if
the file is large, and is only read once and not written to.
If `quotes` is `true`, columns enclosed within double-quote (\") characters are allowed to
contain new lines and column delimiters. Double-quote characters within a quoted field must
be escaped with another double-quote. Specifying `dims` as a tuple of the expected rows and
columns (including header, if any) may speed up reading of large files. If `comments` is
`true`, lines beginning with `comment_char` and text following `comment_char` in any line
are ignored.

writedlm(f, A, delim='\\t'; opts)
Write `A` (a vector, matrix, or an iterable collection of iterable rows) as text to `f`
(either a filename string or an `IO` stream) using the given delimiter
`delim` (which defaults to tab, but can be any printable Julia object, typically a `Char` or
`AbstractString`).
For example, two vectors `x` and `y` of the same length can be written as two columns of
tab-delimited text to `f` by either `writedlm(f, [x y])` or by `writedlm(f, zip(x, y))`.
