yes, it works, but another question arouse. When I have eight columns,
after i write them to another file, these numbers are not in the same
line. The last two numbers are in another line like this:
964.850 0.00000 25.3800 0.00000 335.750
0.00000
0.237400 0.00000
964.510 0.00000 25.0400 0.00000 338.800
0.00000
0.240100 0.00000
964.140 0.00000 24.6500 0.00000 342.150
0.00000
0.245400 0.00000
963.750 0.00000 24.2800 0.00000 345.690
0.00000
0.250700 0.00000
Why is that? thx
