I have a large text file with a lot of lines of the form:
solzen= 0.0000000E+00 10.00000
alb,xindx,imin,frac,aeropt = 6.761 0.023 11 100.0 0.19440E+00
1.8679 1.8538 1.8439 1.8197 1.7722 1.7360 1.7019
and I’m trying to read it into my Fortran code without laboriously
counting the field widths for each of the floats. The formatting
of this file is not constant.
I’m able to read in the first line correctly with :
read(10, ‘(10x, f, f)’, iostat=istat) sza_low, sza_upp
but am unable to read in the second line:
read(10,‘(30x,f,f,i,f,f)’,iostat=istat) f1,f2,i1,f3,f4
where all of the variables are real’s except for the integer i1.
I would appreciate some information as to how best to read in
this file. I’m really trying to avoid having to specify field
widths for all the “f” and “i” formatting statements because it’s
a very large text file.
Thanks,
Catherine
