Import an oddly shaped txt file

I have a txt file that is with a weird shape as you can see in the attached. When I use the import feature in matlab and choose nemeric matrix, the imported matrix looks like it should (each value allocated to the correct number on the second row). I don`t know how to replicate that in code. On a side note, is it possible to replace the "," with "." and then import?

clc; clear all ;
file = 'B00001.txt' ;
fid = fopen(file,'r') ;
S=textscan(fid,'%s','delimiter','\n');
fclose(fid) ;
S = S{1} ;
All the file contents will be saved in cell S. You can do what ever you want from S.

Note that there are many other ways to read a file.
