Although far from new to POV-Ray (programmed first rendering in about 1996),
I am an infrequent user and thus a novice.  Right now I'm returning to it to
produce some 3D statistical graphs.  It would be really convenient for me
read data in from some sort of two-dimensional data file (a table).  Comma
separated value files (.CSV) are commonly used for this.  Is there any
convenient way to read a CSV file into some sort of data container (an
array of arrays? or can MATRIX be used other than for transforms?)

Thanks!
