I'm thinking of migrating from Fortran to Ruby. Do you think i should go ahead??
First problem i have.
How to read a file with several fields? This means:
Imagine a file:
Peter4 1990
Sam 3 1980
Grac6 1991

I would like to read for each line:name, order and year (3 variables per line). How can i do this? and how can i write them into a file??
Thank you in advance.
