Hi,

I am trying to "grep" in 650 data files a row which has a particular
number on column 2, namely " 0.250000000000000E+00 ".

Alternatively, I could look for that row by searching for the first
column, which is " 1 ".

Unfortunately, this row changes position in the 650 files and looks like this:

The purpose is to identify the row and then plot the 3rd and 4th
columns once that row has been identified:


X_inst = FILE[????:, 2]  # Column 3
Y_inst = FILE[????:, 3]  # Column 4

My problem is how to define those ????

thanks a lot,

Pau
