I've noticed over the months that most of the posts are asking about
text or text manipulation for the web. I'm interested in simple data
manipulation of numbers. In all the books I've read I've never seen one
example of how to read into a variable 1) two columns(or three if I'm
doing 3D) of numbers that represent an ordered pair(or set) without line
feeds and 2) a simple stream of data over multiple lines without the
line feeds. Could I get some help here? Also any references to using
Python as a data cruncher would be useful. NumPy, etc. is nice but most
of the work there is associated with modeling not analyzing data.
Thanks in advance.
