Nov 8, 2017 at 19:25 comment added andre314 ToExpression should be used somewhere to convert the string in a mathematica expression
Nov 8, 2017 at 19:25 comment added J. M.'s missing motivation If this is a JSON file, you could use Import[] with "JSON" or "RawJSON".
Nov 8, 2017 at 19:24 comment added N.J.Evans Have you tried data=Import[...your-file..., "Table"]?
Nov 8, 2017 at 19:22 comment added whatwhatwhat I took a quick scan of all the rows and they all look the same. Fundamentally, I think I need to have Mathematica treat each line individually and convert to its own interpretation of an {x,y,z} data point. Do you know how I might be able to do this?
Nov 8, 2017 at 19:17 comment added J. M.'s missing motivation I suspect that your problem is in how you import your file, and possibly something wonky within your file.
Nov 8, 2017 at 19:16 comment added whatwhatwhat Either way, Pastebin says I can't paste that much data.
Nov 8, 2017 at 19:16 comment added whatwhatwhat @J.M. Why? Is the sample I've provided not enough? Or are you wanting to see it in a specific format? The format I've shown above is the same for every row.
Nov 8, 2017 at 19:14 comment added J. M.'s missing motivation "I have a text file..." - post it on Pastebin, please.
