I use write_table to write array into a text file. Since I need to write 10 columns of float data, I use the following format.<br><pre>write_table("list.txt", "a", alist, 10"%16.2f")</pre>Unfortunately, NCL can't realize it. The error occurs. Then I use the following format, and it works<br><pre>write_table("list.txt", "a", alist, "%16.2f%16.2f%16.2f%16.2f%16.2f%16.2f%16.2f%16.2f%16.2f%16.2f")</pre>However, the second one is really tedious. Do you know what is the best way to use format in write_table?<br><br></div>2. I also want to use write_matrix. Unfortunately, I don't find how to use appending with write_matrix. Do you know whether there is appending feature for write_matrix?<br><br></div>Thank you<span><font color="#888888"><br></font></span></div><span><font color="#888888">Zhifeng<br></font></span></div>
