[scilab-Users] Reading the llast line from a file

[Mike Page]

Hi,

You can try using mseek.  This works best for binary files, but you can use
it like this.

For example with the file you specify saved as c:\temp\tst.txt, I do

fid=mopen("c:\temp\tst.txt","r")
mseek(-5,fid,'end')
mgetl(fid)
 ans  =

 6.0

The actual offset from the end depends on the exact structure of the file.
The 5 bytes here are for the 3 bytes of the last line and the blank line at
the end.

HTH,
Mike.

Hi,

Does anybody know how to read and save the last line from a file.
For example, I have this /file.txt/
1.0
2.0
3.0
4.0
5.0
6.0
