Subject: Re: reading variables in a file

I would do this that way:

var = Array.new
File.open("file.txt", "r") do |file|
 file.each_line do |line|
  var << line.split
 end
end

Now you have an array to play with.
If you want to access a specific line, use
sth = var[0] => ["Peter", "4", 1990"]

Or a single variable:

var[0][0] => "Peter"
var[2][2] => "1991"

If you want to write them into an other file, just write:

File.open("write.txt", "a+") do |file|
 file << var
end

Hope thats, what you were looking for,
