Introduction
With scripts in DeltaShell you can add customized features to SOBEK:
- Set, delete and modify time series data (e. g. boundary condition input)
- Modify model data during runtime

All scripts in DeltaShell are written in Python.
Different types of scripts
We distinguish two types of scripts:
