numeric input conversions

[Philip Engelhardt]

Hi!
I´m trying to get data out of a data file in order to assign it to a
variable. For example, my data file "test.dat" looks like this:
#  t[sec]        F[N]            Ex
   1.03         1435.43        0.123
   1.87         1654.54        0.124
   ...
After opening it with "myfile = fopen ("test.dat")", I´d like to assign,

e.g. the second row second column entry of "myfile" to the variable x
for further computation. How can I do that?

Thank you in advance,
Philip Engelhardt
