Hi all,
suppose we have a list of number pairs like this (first 11 lines of a .txt file):
0,3E-14
0.001,-7E-14
0.002,-4E-14
0.003,2.9E-13
0.004,3.1000000000000004E-13
0.005,1.2E-13
0.006,2.3E-13
0.007,-7E-14
0.008,1.1000000000000001E-13
0.0090000000000000011,1E-14
0.01,4E-14
Response:
{{"0,3E-14"}, {"0.001,-7E-14"}, {"0.002,-4E-14"}, {"0.003,2.9E-13"}, \
{"0.004,3.1000000000000004E-13"}, {"0.005,1.2E-13"}, \
{"0.006,2.3E-13"}, {"0.007,-7E-14"}, \
{"0.008,1.1000000000000001E-13"}, {"0.0090000000000000011,1E-14"}, \
{"0.01,4E-14"}, ... }
Now I imported this into a table:
values = Import["data.txt", "Table"]
And tried to plot it like this:
ListPlot[values]
Unfortunately, the result was only this:
Now I suspect that Mathematica (version 8, btw) didn't understand the number format of the second number of the pairs (like "4E-14").
Could that be the case? If so: how can these types of numbers be converted into "real" numbers Mathematica understands?
Or do we have another problem here?
Thanks so much!
Stefan.
