Reading ASCII data from multiple files into one array? [message #49558]

I'm still fairly new to this group, but I have a question that's been
troubling me for some time now. I have several data files that are all
in ASCII format. I have no problems reading an individual ASCII file,
but, if it's at all possible, I'd like to read data from all files into
a 3d array.

For example:

File 1 contains a=[0,3,8,9,10]
b=[2,4,6,10,20]
File 2 contains a=[13,8,6,7,2]
b=[1,2,3,4,5]

I've been trying FOR loops and such to read the data into a 3d array,
say, for this example, with dimensions [5,2,2] where the 3rd value
would be the amount of files I'm opening. Am I going about this in a
somewhat correct manner, or is my logic completely off?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Nicole
