     output_type
-        Desired output type of tabular data. Default valid values are ``"pandas"``,
-        ``"numpy"`` and ``"file"``, but can be configured by parameter ``valid_types``.
-    valid_types
-        Tuple of valid desired output types.

     outfile
         File name for saving the result data. Required if ``output_type`` is ``"file"``.
         If specified, ``output_type`` will be forced to be ``"file"``.
