Hello,
I have a 13 columns by 5 rows floating that I want to save in a ASCII file.
I can use the following command:
openw, 1, 'd:\file.txt'
printf, 1, FORMAT = '(13(F11.4))', array
close, 1
My question is: How to replace the 13 value by a variable ?
By doing this:
a = 13
printf, 1, FORMAT = '(a(F11.4))', array
I get an error message or the format is not in the proper way.
Thank you very much.
Francois.

use
a = 13
s = '(' + string(a) + '(F11.4))'
printf,1,format=s,array
The format keyword takes a string variable as an argument.
Cheers;
Chris
