Read data from a file

I am having trouble with a Cody Coursework problem. It reads:

'You are given a text file called "Random_Data.txt". The very first line of the file contains only 1 number. This number indicates how many vectors are stored in this file. Every vector in this file is 1 x 5. Write a script that will add up all of the vectors in this file and save your answer in a variable called "Total".'

It must be a script and not a function. I have tried fscanf, but am not sure how to use it.

Thanks!

Then please post your code. Otherwise it is hard to help you without presenting the full solution. The usage of fscanf is explained in the docs: doc fscanf. What is not clear after reading this?
