file IO Query

[Darren Farmer]

Can anyone advise a simple while/eof protocol for testing for eof when
loading lines of data from a file.

typically in C I would use something like

   while (fgets(fid,255,str)!=NULL)
     ...etc

at present in octave I am using....

while (status==1)

  lstr=fgets(iFID,200);
  if (feof(iFID)==1)
    break;
  end

 ....etc
  

thnaks
