R: textscan

[Riccardo Corradini]

Hi,
I use this function thanks to David Bateman to read ASCII .mat files from ox programming
language ..In the first line of the text file there are the number of rows and columns the others are the element of the matrix
function [m] = matread(filename)
 fid = fopen(filename,"rt"); [v, c] = fscanf(fid, "%g", Inf);
fclose(fid);
m = reshape (v(3:end), v(2), v(1))';
endfunction

Hope it might be a good template.
Bests regards
Riccardo Corradini

hi,
i want to translate the line

C = textscan(fid,'%*f %f','HeaderLines',7);

from matlab-code into octave. the function textscan reads two columns of float numbers from a textfile and puts it into a matrix C. It ignores the first seven header lines of the file.
is there anything similar for octave?

yours,
sascha
