I have a file with 360 Lines with 4 Numbers as above. I can read a line to a string, but howto convert the numbers to floats? In C++ this would be easy with strstream, but i am a newby in phyton.

Would you help me?

y = "4.03553833007813E+002 3.52176117897034E+000 -3.47368684507223E+002 3.52219986915588E+000"
[float(x) for x in y.split()]
