Question

$file = @f         


        

Answer 1

Your explode() call is using 9 spaces as a separator, but your file only appears to have 5 spaces between each number. This means your $currentline be a single element array containing the original line, and not separate elements with a number in each.

Either change the number of spaces in the explode call, or change to

$currentLine = preg_split('/\s+/', $currentLine);

which will split on any number of sequential spaces.
