I have a file with 5 columns that looks like this (except for the
column labels):

T/F	I/U	Time	   Blocks	Volume
T	I	7.12	        227	11145.6
F	U	16.34	227	10914.9
T	I	21.43	232	11151.9
T	U	25.99	224	11364.1
F	I	37.13	199	7566.9

Essentially I want to calculate the median for each time, blocks, and
volume for the entire file, and then depending on T/F and I/U.

I've gotten the script to work with the first three columns, but when
I add the last two columns (blocks and volume) it returns an error.
Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong?

Here is the first part of the script that works fine with the first 3
columns:
____________________________________________________________ _
pro metrics1, xmed
xx=fltarr(9999) & x1= strarr(9999) & x2= strarr(9999)

i= 0 & x1i= '~' & x2i= '~'
openr,67, 'file1.out'
;
while not eof(67) do BEGIN
readf, 67, x1i, x2i, xxi, format='(2A2, G7.2)'
x1(i)= x1i & x2(i)= x2i & xx(i)= xxi
i = i + 1
ENDwhile
PRINT, ' last record was: ', x1i, x2i, xxi

ind= where(xx gt 0.0)
yy= xx(ind)
s=size( yy )
xm = median(yy)
print ,s(1), xm, ' total'

ind= where(xx gt 0.0 and x1 eq 'T ')
z= max(ind) & IF z gt 0 then BEGIN
yy= xx(ind) & s=size( yy ) & xm = median(yy)
print ,s(1), xm, ' All with True' & END
__________________________________________________________


Here is the script when I tried to add the last two columns, it
doesn't work:
The errors I get are:
1. Type conversion error: Unable to convert given STRING to Float. (at
the readf line)
2. Attempt to subscript XX with IND is out of range. (at the yy=xx
(ind) line)
