Scientific Notation

[DiZ]

I'm currently reading in lines from a file using the _FileReadToArray function.

The lines contain rows of scientific notation numbers, some negative and some positive. If I use StringSplit with a space as the delimiter I can create an array of the numbers however due to the format of the file, where one or more spaces seperate the numbers, this array also contains some blank entries. I am trying to check each array entry to see if it is a number. Do any of the built in functions handle scientific notation ? I can not seem to get it to work using isNumber or StringIsNum.

Check out StringStripWS(). There's an option to strip multiple spaces down to a single space. That would ensure no blank elements in the array.

Replace any instances of two-consecutive spaces with a single space?

StringReplace($line, "  ", " ")
