Re: [ferret_users] Reading variables from an ascii file



Hi Ansley,
I am using the following commands but obviously variables are incorrect asigned
DEFINE AXIS/x=262.15:279.15:0.20/units=degree xaxis
DEFINE AXIS/y=18.05:18.05:1/units=degree yaxis
DEFINE AXIS/t="01-JAN-1960:00:00":"31-DEC-1960:23:00":1/Units=hours taxis
DEFINE GRID/x=xaxis/y=yaxis/t=taxis wgrid
FILE/GRID=wgrid/VAR="u10,dir" marino.txt
SAVE/FILE=marino.cdf u10,dir
plot/t=1-JAN-1960 u10
list/T="1-JAN-1960:01:00" u10
Any idea?
Cheers
Arturo

I made a C program to get rid off the headers and the date data so I've got an ascii file with only the valuable data
Thanks a bunch
Arturo

Hi Arturo,
We can help you better if you write back and show a sample of what the data look like.  What is in each block of data?

Dear ferreters,
How do I read an ascii file wich contains anual data from a grid of stations located in the gulf?
Blocks of columns of variables are listed hourly from the first to the last day of the year. This
is done for each station so as to complete with all the stations.
Cheers
Arturo
