Hi Dave, in Mathematica 4.0 you can say cc = {{1, 2.7}, {2, 1.9}, {3, 3.0}} In[5]:= Export["~/tmp/mat.dat", cc, "Table"] Out[5]= "~/tmp/mat.dat" In[6]:= !! ~/tmp/mat.dat 1 2.7 2 1.9 3 3. in Mathematica 3.0.x it is a bit more complicated look at http://support.wolfram.com/Kernel/Files/WriteMatrix3.html Hope that helps Jens Dave Berube wrote: > > I am writing a program that inputs 2 lists of numbers each with two > columns, and creates a 3rd list also with two columns. > > For Example, lets say that the files file.txt and file2.txt look like this: > > file.txt file2.txt > > 1 1.5 0 3.6 > 2 4.6 2 1.9 > 3 6.8 6 4.2 > > I can read them into Mathematica with ReadList > A = ReadList["file.txt", {Number, Number}] > B = ReadList["file2.txt", {Number, Number}] > > then I do all my operations that I need to do on them and come up with a > two column matrix C. > > In plain old Mathematica form it looks like, say, > > C = {{1, 2.7}, {2, 1.9}, {3, 3.0}} > > But I want to get a file, call it file3.txt, that contains just 2 columns, > like file.txt and file2.txt.
