Hi all, I use python 2.5 and want to read in a simple 5-columned, tab- delimited ascii file "dummy.txt" such as as
1 2 3.0 4 5.6 4 6 77 8.2 19 I do import csv asciireader = csv.reader(open('dummy.txt'), delimiter='\t') array1 = [] for entry in asciireader: array1.append( entry ) however when I then print array1 then the array does only have two elements [1 2 3.0 4 5.6] and [4 6 77 8.2 19]. The tab-delimiter seems to have been totally ignored! This is bad because I want to do some maths with the numbers from the file later (after converting them into floats). Can someone help?
