How to extract the fourth place of decimal of a number which is basically a flag-status?

I have a multicolumn datafile where the last coloun presents numbers like 3.2341, 2.3450, 1.2320, 8.9871. The fourth place of decimal is always either 1 or 0. If it is 1, it represents a certain flag to be 'ON', otherwise, it is 'OFF'. How to extract this flag information from these numbers?

Read your datafile however you want (using textscan, or csvread, or dlmread, or readtable) into a matrix. For example,
m = cell2mat(textscan(fid, '%f %f %f %f')); %or whatever the format is
Multiply the last column of your matrix by 10000, round it just to be sure, and take the modulo with 2 and you get your flag:
m = [1 2 3 3.2341; 4 5 6 2.3450; 7 8 9 1.2320; 10 11 12 8.9871]; %for example
flag = mod(round(m(:, end) * 1e4), 2)

That's fine if speed is not critical. Converting to string is going to be a lot slower than just multiplication and modulo.
