Which Data Format Should I Use To Display My Own Data In Igv

For each one hundred base of the chromosome 1 of human genome, I get a score, as follows:

chr1

Base    Score
0       1.03
100     22.88
200     -3.04
....

9000    33.04
......

And I want to display the score according to the position on chromosome, which kind of data format do I need to use to store the information.

You can try bed format. See: http://www.broadinstitute.org/igv/BED

If it would have been a continuous data you could have tried BEDGRAPH. See: http://www.broadinstitute.org/software/igv/bedgraph
