edf to Matlab conversion?

I need to convert edf to Matlab. I have tried to use edfRead. The function call is

function [hdr, record] = edfread('aesa1.edf')

But I get the following error message:

Error: File: edfread.m Line: 1 Column: 34 Unexpected MATLAB expression.

Can you help me?

Harsh,

Where do you place your datafile before running edfRead?

https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/31900-edfread From the link above, I was able to download and run the function on a sample file from http://www.physionet.org/physiobank/database/adfecgdb/r01.edf such as [hdr,datastream] = edfread('r01.edf').

It's possible that the file is corrupted or has been modified in some way. Try to run it with a new install of the function. As this is a file exchange submission, it is best to reach out to the author should this issue persist.

Harsh,

I reinstalled edfRead and ran it with your data.

function [hdr, record] = edfread('r01.edf')

I got the following error code

Error: File: edfread.m Line: 1 Column: 34 Unexpected MATLAB expression.

Before I ran the function I got the following pop-up message:

"Invalid syntax at 'r01.edf'.Possibly a ),}, or ] is missing.

Can you help me?
