Then you will need to plan out the steps to achieve this. I am guessing inserting spaces is not your true aim, but graphing or outputting a graphable format is. 

# open the file 

# Read a line at a time probably in a while loop

# split the line on appropriate markers and assign the results 
#  to a suitable data structure
# look at split and hash data structures. 

# store the above result (print to a csv perhaps) 
#  or plot the graph points, continue to the next line

# close the file when done.
