Formatting Output

I have the following array:

83 84 85 86 87 88 89 90 91 92

I want to save it to file with two entries per line i.e


83 84
85 86
87 88
89 90
91 92


is there an easy way to do this in labview ?


THanks.

Yes, there is. The Reshape Array function will convert the 1D array to a 2D and then Write To Spreadsheet File will save it. Use Array Size to get the size of the 1D array and divide by two to get number of rows. Fix the number of coulmns at 2. For Write to Spreadsheet, specify a space as the delimiter.

The attached VI will do what you need.

It uses the 'Reshape Array' function to transform the 1D array into a 2D array. You have to calculate the size of the row dimension by dividing the original array size by two. The column dimension will always be 2.

Somehow I missed that you wanted to save it as well, but Dennis took care of it 😉
