Scalar utility

Asa H 2.0 has been run with both scalar and vector utilities.  An example of a scalar utility is Asa H 2.0 light (blog of 11 Feb. 2011).  In that code the utility (of the case) is the total time during which that particular pattern (case) has been observed. (a product of the time duration/length of the case and the number of times the case has occurred)
