I am trying to import multiple CSV data files into MATLAB without manually doing so (by hard coding), I want the data as a double and not in table – so the command
T = readtable('myfile.csv');
or
T = readtable('myfile.csv', 'HeaderLines',3); % skips the first three rows of data
is not the best choice to use. How can I import the data from these comma seperate value files like how dlmread works with Excel files?
Is csvread a good approach? Becuase when I read the litreature (https://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/ref/csvread.html) it says it is Not Recommended.
I was working with Octave for a while and the dlmread function works well with it, why doesn't MATLAB have that functionality?
