Making an array of only the first number of each row in a file [message #92434]

Hi all, I'm having trouble making an array consisting of only the first number of each row in a file. Here is an example of one of the rows: 13 1:0.440091 2:0.663382 3:0.871638 4:0.896678 5:0.834448

I just want to take the first number, 13, and put it into an array along with all the other first numbers in each row.

What I've attempted so far:

arr1 = make_array(1,500)
openr, 1, 'filelocation'
readf, 1, arr1

This forms an array consisting of (13,1,2,3,5,...). How do I ignore the subsequent numbers in each row?

Thanks for your consideration
-Tim
