It is possible to add more than the mentioned input parameters. This reduces the usability, as it can mislead the user.

Testdescription:
Add more columns than mentioned in the manual, e.g.:
1, 1, 10, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 33, 33, 44

Possible solution:
If too many parameters are given in, print a(n error) message to assure the user is knowing, what happens

    pfcalc only reads the first 7 values of a given line, anything else is discarded. This enables the user to use a result csv file, which has more than 7 columns, as an input file.
    Proposed solution: print a warning when verbose operation mode is activated with the -v switch.
