Using textscan to read from an input file.

Really love the way you explain things, making things easy to understand ！I am addicted !

I've seen a couple comments asking about the header line causing problems. From the documentation, you can use "HeaderLines" to tell it how many lines to skip. For instance:
S = textscan(fid, '%s %f %f %f %f %f %d', 'HeaderLines', 1, 'Delimiter', ', ')

Hi Heather
Thank you so much for your videos, they have been so useful for learning to use MATLAB! I really like the way you explain things!

I have a 4 GB text file that I need to analyse. Because of its size, I can't open it on MATLAB, EViews or Excel.
I have been told to open it in 'parts', possibly using textscan.
I have followed your steps and it just says S = {0 x 1} {0 x 2} etc, so it can't read any of my columns.
I wondered if you know how to open a file in parts please?
Thank you so much for your help!
Emily

The syntax you show for selecting a value from the column, S{1}{1}, only seems to work for strings. How can I make it work on doubles or ints?

Can I read live CSV (Cpu temp) with this ?

Thanks. Can textread used instead of text scan?

Thanks for the video!
Can you make a video on how to read a wrl file? (IndexedFaceSet)

Quick question, how did you manage for textscan to not read the first line of the file but instead immediately jump to the dates and prices?

hi thanks for the video it is really nice, i have a huge data which i am trying to import it in matlab using textscan actually it is an asc file, it works but the problem is that after each row i have zero till the end of the data. Can you please help me?

[krishnachauhan]

can i use text files as location address o extract other data.

[kbeee]

Thanks for the good work. But I have a similar data and am doing basically the same thing but am not able to extract the column as you did in the video

Hello, while using 'testscan', how did it ignore first line in text file?
