[scilab-Users] Reading data files

[samuel.enibe at unn.edu.ng]

Dear Sir,
PLEASE KINDLY LET ME KNOW WHICH COMMAND TO USE TO ATTACH LABELS TO EACH BAR OF A SCILAB BAR CHART PRODUCED WITH THE  bar FUNCTION.
IN MATLAB THIS IS DONE WITH THE xlabel FUNCTION.

THE FUNCTION   xlabel DOES NOT PRODUCE THE REQUIRED EFFECT IN SCILAB
THANKS.

  Hello,

[NumMatrix, TextHeader ] = fscanfMat(filename)
should do just what you want. If you do not need the header :
NumMatrix = fscanfMat(filename)
should be ok
It is also possible to indicate a format for reading numerical data.
--> help fscanfMat

Regards
Samuel
