Print side by side
Dear all,

How can I print any variable or string value side by side for each line within a loop? For example I have 300 zeros and I want to get an output like below lines. Each line have to be truncated at the end of the lines ( eg. 80 characters).

0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0
0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0
0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0
....
....

Thanks...

You mean like that? If yes, not worked.

Code:
for (( k=1; k<=300; k+=1 )); do
fold -w 80 "0.0 "  >> temp.dat
done

This is not what you specified in post#1. That was more like
Code:
for (( k=1; k<=300; k+=1 )); do printf "0.0 "; done | fold -w 80

You might need to add a printf "\n" at the end.
