    Selecting numbers from 10000

    Hello all,

    I have a very big data That consists of four columns : the first one is the time, the second one is the instructed word ( either GO or STOP ) , the third one is the instructed aim ( five numbers = 0 ( only for STOP ) 10 20 30 40 50 ( for GO ) ) and the last one is the achieved result. The word GO is always constant across the data ( i.e, it is always repeated 60 times every approx 0.05 seconds and it lasts for 3 seconds ). The word Stop is not however. They are alternative. So GO STOP GO STOP GO STOP GO STOP GO STOP. The Word GO in my data is repeated 4500 times. While the word Stop 5500. So the total RAW data is 10000. The problem is that I am facing is that I am trying to extract the achieved results or the fourth column with its corresponding time. If u take these data and plot the third column and the fifth one you will see a shift in time that varies across data. So What I am trying to do is to find a function or to extract the data in way that just gives me the achieved data ( the begging of it to the end ). So as an example this is the output :

    0 GO 40 0
    0.053 GO 40 0
    0.103 GO 40 0
    0.153 GO 40 0
