output format help!

[buffoon]

I want to write an array to a file through a loop,

the fragment of program:
DO I=1,N
...
YL=Y(I)
WRITE(UNIT=1,FMT=*) YL
ENDDO

the result is each data in a new line
if I need the data to be written in a line,
how can I achieve that!
thanks!

Depends on variable type and actual format desired, but something like:

WRITE (UNIT=1, FMT="((X,I))") Y

without the DO loop. Replace (X,I) with whatever is desirable in your case.

I have tried that,but failed,
can you explain the statement in detail? Is the parameter optional and what does (X,I) mean ?
If the array Y is real and I want output them in format F5.3 with five number each line,how to achieve that?
thank you in advance!

I'd recommend looking FORMAT up in the product documentation (or your textbook) for a more detailed explanation.
