I have data in a text file and would like to rearange the data in a different sequencial order.
For instance I have:
Name,proj2;
Edition,59;
Start;
Variable,1;
DataReg,00.0,00.0;
Area,520.00;
300,221.7467,424.1668,801.0146;
390,117.4175,507.8583,29.2203;

300,488.6090,963.0885,488.8977;

(Sorry it's so long, just wanted to paint a vivid picture)
Notice how the lines that include "DataReg" change in the following sequencial order:
00.0,00.0;
00.0,30.0;
00.0,60.0;
30.0,00.0;
30.0,30.0;
30,0,60.0;
60.0,00.0;
60.0,30.0;
60.0,60.0
What I would like instead is for the data to be in the following sequencial order:
00.0,00.0;
30.0,00.0;
60.0,00.0;
00.0,30.0;
30.0,30.0;
60.0,30.0;
00.0,60.0;
30.0,60.0;
60.0,60.0;
Of course, keep the 6 lines of data below each "DataReg" line to stay with it's corresponding DataReg when rearanged. Also keep in mind the actual data set is much larger than the one provided. Include many descriptive comments in the script please. Thank you kindly!
