contents This paper offers a comprehensive examination of single-file experiments within the field of pedestrian dynamics, providing a review from both theoretical and analytical perspectives. It begins by tracing the historical context of single-file movement studies in pedestrian dynamics. The significance of understanding the fundamental relationships between density, speed, and flow in pedestrian dynamics is explored through the lens of simple single-file systems. Furthermore, we examine various traffic systems involving human or non-human entities such as ants, mice, bicycles, and cars, and provide insights. We explore the types of experimental setups, data collection methods, and factors that influence pedestrian movement. We also define and explain the common concepts related to single-file movement, particularly in experimental research. Finally, we present a Python tool named "SingleFileMovementAnalysis" designed for analyzing single-file experimental data, specifically head trajectories. This tool provides a unified approach for computing movement metrics like speed, density, and headway. The article aims to stimulate further research and underscore the areas where future researchers can contribute to the advancement and improvement of single-file studies.
