Dear all,
I am reading data from a text file with the standard format:
FILE TITLE Header-1 Header-2 Header-3 Header-4 Header-558.1 Inf 7.0000 0 059.1 Inf 7.0000 0 060.1 7.7090e+04 4.8870 1.297e-05 129.761.1 Inf 7.0000 0 0
In each file, there is one line for a file title, followed by a series of numerical data columns with a mixture of numerical formats (engineering, integer, inf etc.). Each data column has its own text header. The number of data columns is variable.
I would like to obtain each column header, preferably as a cell of strings, and then use strcmp() to confirm the identity of each column.
I have tried various methods such as textscan and fgetl. The closest I can get is a character array, but this does not distinguish individual column names:
fid = fopen('file.txt', 'r');firstline = fgetl(fid);secondline = fgetl(fid);>> whos secondline Name Size Bytes Class Attributes l 1x104 208 char
Thanks in advance for the help!
Best regards,
Louis
