Here is one possibility (if I understand what you are trying to do
correctly). Let suppose your {a,b,c} data from your ReadList function
looks like this:
mydata = Table[{Random[], Random[], Random[]}, {4}]
{{0.964053, 0.729247, 0.867568}, {0.942935, 0.0860712, 0.588032},
{0.0714172, 0.65093, 0.890847}, {0.476312, 0.124108, 0.0936164}}
Now we convert the data into a set of rules:
myrules = Map[Thread[{a, b, c} -> #] &, mydata]
Here is our function
myfunc[x_] := c Sin[a x + b]
Then we apply our rules to the function
myfunc[x] /. myrules
{0.867568 Sin[0.729247 + 0.964053 x],
0.588032 Sin[0.0860712 + 0.942935 x],
0.890847 Sin[0.65093 + 0.0714172 x],
0.0936164 Sin[0.124108 + 0.476312 x]}
Cheers,
Brian
