If I rad you code right, file.rows is equal to 1 and your 'for' loop will
only iterate once.  Is that what you were expecting?

No reproducible code provided, so that is my best guess.

>file.rows<- c(nrow(file)/288)  # "input_file.txt" contains 288 reformatted
lines for each original data file
...
>for (k in 1:file.rows){  # iterates code for each 288 line block of
"input_file.txt"
...
