You used tabs, which get deleted by some mail/news readers. Anyway, here
is a start:

data='''\
1/1982 8:00:00 0
1/5/1982 8:00:00 0.7885
1/19/1982 8:00:00 0
1/20/1982 8:00:00 0'''

lines = data.split('\n')
# up to here, only for example

for line in lines:
fields = line.split()
print('date {}: time {}: value {}'.format(fields[0], fields[1],
fields[2]))

>>>
date 1/1982: time 8:00:00: value 0
date 1/5/1982: time 8:00:00: value 0.7885
date 1/19/1982: time 8:00:00: value 0
date 1/20/1982: time 8:00:00: value 0

For real usage assume data are in data.txt in current directory. Then
start with

with open('data.txt') as lines:
for line in lines....
