Re: Export data in txt file

Hi,

I can see why you are getting the result you are, but I'm having difficulty determining what you are trying to do. Is the intent to write the #, lon and lat fields to the string variable "data", and then for each file, append a column from rain_tot_tend? If so, then I would think what you'd need to do is create "data" and write the #,lat,lon columns *only* on FirstTime through the outer loop over numFILES, but each through that loop, append rain_tot_tend to "data(npt)" ; the innermost loop is not necessary and is causing problems. Something more like:

FirstTime=True
  do ifil = 0,numFILES-1 ; BIG FILES LOOP
  a = addfile(FILES(ifil)+".nc","r")
…..skipped lines…...
     if (FirstTime) then
         fname = "TEST.txt"
         data = new(npts,"string")
     end if

     npt =-1
    
     do nl =0, nlat-1 ; do-loop lat
       do ml = 0, mlon-1 ; do-loop lon
          npt = npt+1
              if (FirstTime) then
                  data(npt) = sprinti("%05i ",(npt+1))
                  data(npt) = data(npt) + sprintf("%7.3f ", lat(nl,ml))
                  data(npt) = data(npt) + sprintf("%7.3f ", lon(nl,ml))
              end if
             data(npt) = data(npt) + sprintf("%7.3f ", rain_tot_tend(nl,ml))
      end do ; do-loop lat
   end do ; do-loop lon

  FirstTime = False

  end do ; outer loop over numFILES

  asciiwrite(fname, data)
