crate arrays from text file
« on: June 30, 2010, 10:37:23 AM »
I have a text file with a lot of lines. Need to make each new line in the text file a new part of an array so I can loop through and remove everything except the first 5 characters. Unless there is a way to just remove everything except the first 5 characters of each line, they will also need a comma added to the end of them. If I get them in an array I can do whatever I need though.

insanity. You go around the circle to sanity, and on the other end of the
circle, close to insanity, but not insanity, is unsanity.

Take a look at the file() function.
