reading a number in a file

Do you have an example of the input file?

Dear all,

I have to read an exponential number in fortran:

3.435335355E-02

I try to read it with a E format but It gave me some problems,

Thanks,
Albert

Dear xwb,

I have to read numbers like this:

366 6.0898E-03 0.000
367 5.9922E-03 0.000
368 5.8798E-03 0.000
369 5.7485E-03 0.000
370 2.1932E-02 0.000
371 2.1872E-02 0.000
372 2.1733E-02 0.000

the second column sometimes has e-02 and sometime e-03 I'm trying to use e format but it gave me differents numbers do you know how can I do?

Thanks again,

Albert,

Surely a free format read statement can be used here:-

Read(5,*)I,A,B

will happily read each line of your file
