    I am running this simple script:<br>
    <br>
    <blockquote>from paraview.simple import *<br>
      <br>
      path = "/home/lindsayad/gdrive/MooseOutput/"<br>
      file_name =
"DCPlasma_argon_energy_variable_trans_for_compare_townsend_spline_new_form_var_iz_var_el_new_ip_trans_coeffs_small_plasma_radius_gold_out"<br>
      inp = path + file_name + ".e"<br>
      out = path + file_name + ".csv"<br>
      <br>
      reader = ExodusIIReader(FileName=inp)<br>
      tsteps = reader.TimestepValues<br>
      writer = CreateWriter(out, reader)<br>
      writer.UpdatePipeline(time=tsteps[len(tsteps)-1])<br>
      <br>
    </blockquote>
    When I run the script, 5 csv files are written, with suffix *0.csv,
    *1.csv, ..., *4.csv. The *0.csv file contains the data I want;
    however, the other 4 files are empty. Why are these 4 empty files
    written, and how can I prevent it from happening?<br>
