sscanf with wrong parameters

[tirwit]

Hi

I'm trying to write a script to be used with ROOT from CERN. But I'm having a error which I don't know what's causing it.

The objective is to the script read some data files, grab the numbers, and fill a histogram with them.

This is the script:

{
  char name[20], title[20], file_name[30];
  ifstream read;
  string line;
  Float_t x, y, rms, file=8.0;
  Int_t i, n;
  TProfile *h;
  TObjArray Hlist(0);
  
  //open data files
  for(i=0; i<=6; i++, file+=0.5){
    sprintf(file_name,"%.1fmev/energy-ph-trans.dat",file);
    read.open(file_name);
    
    //put stream pointer in the 6th line
    for(n=1; n<=8; n++){
      getline(read,line);
    }
    
    //get and write data lines
    while(!read.eof()){
      
      //read data from file
      line.clear();
      getline(read,line);
      sscanf(line," %.1f %.1f %.1f ", &x, &y, &rms);
      
      //write name and title of histogram
      sprintf(name,"%.1f", file);
      sprintf(title,"%.1f MeV", file);

      //create histogram
      h = new TProfile(name,title,60,5000000,11000000);
      Hlist.Add(h);
      h->Fill(x,y,rms);
    }
    
    //close the data files
    read.close();
  }

  TFile f("histograms.root","Bremsstrahlung","RECREATE");
  Hlist->Write();
}

The stuff that begins with a capital "T" are constructors from the ROOT, so don't pay attention to them. The error is with sscanf because when I try to execute the script I get this error:

Error: sscanf parameter mismatch param[0] C u create_histograms.cpp:27:
*** Interpreter error recovered ***
*** Interpreter error recovered ***

The data format of the files is this:

# Results from PENCYL.
# Energy distribution of transmitted photons.
# 1st column: E (eV).
# 2nd and 3rd columns: probability density and STU (1/(eV*particle)).
