csvread
2csvread
Purpose Read a comma-separated value file
Syntax M = csvread('filename')
M = csvread('filename',row,col)
M = csvread('filename',row,col,range)
Description M = csvread('filename') reads a comma-separated value formatted file,
filename. The result is returned in M. The file can only contain numeric values.
2-350
M = csvread('filename',row,col) reads data from the comma-separated
value formatted file starting at the specified row and column. The row and
column arguments are zero-based, so that row=0 and col=0 specifies the first
value in the file.
M = csvread('filename',row,col,range) reads only the range specified.
Specify the range using the notation, [R1 C1 R2 C2] where (R1,C1) is the
upper-left corner of the data to be read and (R2,C2) is the lower-right corner.
The range can also be specified using spreadsheet notation as in range =
'A1..B7'.
Remarks csvread fills empty delimited fields with zero. Data files having lines that end
with a nonspace delimiter, such as a semicolon, produce a result that has an
additional last column of zeros.
Examples Given the file, csvlist.dat that contains the comma-separated values
02, 04, 06, 08, 10, 12
03, 06, 09, 12, 15, 18
05, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30
07, 14, 21, 28, 35, 42
11, 22, 33, 44, 55, 66
To read the entire file, use
csvread('csvlist.dat')
ans =
2 4 6 8 10 12
