Hi You can use the way, you use a temp file for makeplot() and after that you can copy content of the file to another file, which will colected all the data.
The makeplot() put data to temp.txt. After each calling makeplot() put few lines for copy to the file result.txt
handle1 = openfile("results.txt","a") handle2 = openfile("temp.txt","r") -- reads the whole file x = read(handle2,"*a") write(handle1,x) closefile(handle1) closefile(handle2)
Or you can make also you own function and to call instead of the makeplot() the makeplotadd()
function makeplotadd(a, b, c, d) makeplot(a,b,"temp.txt",d); handle1 = openfile(c,"a") handle2 = openfile("temp.txt","r") x = read(handle2,"*a") write(handle1,x) closefile(handle1) closefile(handle2)
end
Bye
