Dear collegues, I am complicated reading a .txt with a peculiar format. This .txt file is an output of an R function, which I am running with vanilla inside matlab.... So i need to load this txt file programatically.
This is a part of the contents of the text file :
Reservoir_age_offset_14C_yrs_ranges at 90% confidence intervals
Identification_number: 1
MinRange MaxRange probability
-3962 -1741 90
Mode MidRange Median
-2709 -2852 -2761
Identification_number: 2
MinRange MaxRange probability
-9770 -8066 90
Mode MidRange Median
-8898 -8918 -8913
Identification_number: 3
MinRange MaxRange probability
-3762 4226 87.6
4335 4699 2.4
Mode MidRange Median
-559 468 305
Identification_number: 4
MinRange MaxRange probability
-401 2224 90
Mode MidRange Median
593 911 838
Identification_number: 5
MinRange MaxRange probability
-709 976 90
Mode MidRange Median
307 134 262
etc etc etc .................................................
So, to read this text format I implemented this script, the idea is to reconstruct a matrix from the numerical values in the text file
clear
here=pwd;
filename= 'output.txt';%ths is the text file
fileID2 = fopen(filename);
k=1;
Vale=[];
for j=1:50
s=cell2mat(textscan(fileID2,'%f',3,'headerlines',j,'collectoutput',1));
if isempty(s)==0 %rescue only valid solutions
Vale(:,k)=s; %brrrrrrppp!!
k=k+1;
end
end
fclose(fileID2);
The problem is that I cant read all the numerical values to reconstruct,
it works when I change the number of headerlines manually
e.g.
%s1=cell2mat(textscan(fileID2,'%f',3,'headerlines',7,'collectoutput',1))
However the loop provided incomplete nuber of values
Any idea or more elegant solution with this issue is highly appreciated
Thanks in advance
Jules

This code imports the modified data file:
opt = {'CollectOutput',true, 'MultipleDelimsAsOne',true, ...
'HeaderLines',1, 'EndOfLine',':', 'Whitespace',' \b\t\n\r'};
fmt = '%f%*s%*s%*s%f%f%f%*s%*s%*s%f%f%f%*s';
fid = fopen('data.txt','rt');
tmp = textscan(fid,fmt,opt{:});
fclose(fid);
mat = tmp{1}
