very simple question:
I am writing my data in a text file in the format(say):
name val1 val2 val3
file1 20 33 44
file2 30 22 22
file3 20 12 12
Now I have about 100 values i.e. data goes up to val100, but writing this is gedit means that after about 15 the next val goes to the next line. I am trying to read these in python and manipulate so have trouble if my first val i.e. val1 and 15th i.e. val15 are both in the same column. I have tried using geany to produce the text file but it seems there is a column limit? Is there a way I could get around it? Ofcourse my other option would be to read data off an excel file but I want to pursue this. Thanks!
