Hello,I have an ASCII file with lots of data, I would like to examine one by one.
How can I read only the first 1000 data from that file?
Is there an extra command, or can I determine when scanned?
Try the load command.
help load
here is an example:
a= load filename.ext
a(1:20)
This should load the complete file into memory and then display the first 20 lines of data.
a(33:55) will display lines 33 to 55
