I need to pass from a text file to a matrix in Matlab

1 次查看(过去 30 天)
I have the next .txt file.
Name-Goals-Assists-Red cards
Frank-6-2-0
Mike-0-5-4
Ben-23-11-2
I want to transform that into a matrix, for example named P. So that when I put P(1,2) I get 6 or P(3,1) I get Ben. First I use fopen to get the id but then I do not know how to do to have the matrix and not an array of cells.

"I do not know how to do to have the matrix and not an array of cells."
A mix of text and numeric cannot be stored in a numeric matrix.
Do not use a cell array, it just makes working with numeric data inefficient.
You should use a table, probably by using READTABLE when you import the data.

You say you want a matrix that contains stuff like the number 6 as well as the string "Ben" (or the character array 'Ben'). That's not possible to do with a matrix because each element of a matrix must be of the same class.
The closest you can get is to use a cell array, because the nice thing about cell arrays is that any element can be of any class.
P = {'Frank' 6 2 0; 'Mike' 0 5 4; 'Ben' 23 11 2} % cell array
P = 3×4 cell array
{'Frank'} {[ 6]} {[ 2]} {[0]} {'Mike' } {[ 0]} {[ 5]} {[4]} {'Ben' } {[23]} {[11]} {[2]}
P{1,2}
ans = 6
P{3,1}
ans = 'Ben'
P = ['Frank' 6 2 0; 'Mike' 0 5 4; 'Ben' 23 11 2] % trying to make a matrix doesn't work
Error using vertcat
Dimensions of arrays being concatenated are not consistent.

After you read this:
attach the actual text file, or at least a part of it if it's too big.
In the meantime did you try
t = readtable(fileName); % Load into table.
P = table2array(t(:, 2:end)) % Convert columns 2 onwards into a matrix called P

Or you could do this:
ca = {'Frank' 6 2 0; 'Mike' 0 5 4; 'Ben' 23 11 2} % Define a cell array
ca = 3×4 cell array
{'Frank'} {[ 6]} {[ 2]} {[0]} {'Mike' } {[ 0]} {[ 5]} {[4]} {'Ben' } {[23]} {[11]} {[2]}
%ca = readcell(fileName); % Read in data from file into a cell array.
t = cell2table(ca) % Convert to a table.
t = 3×4 table
ca1 ca2 ca3 ca4 _________ ___ ___ ___ {'Frank'} 6 2 0 {'Mike' } 0 5 4 {'Ben' } 23 11 2
P = table2array(t(:, 2:end)) % Convert columns 2 onwards into a matrix called P
P = 3×3
6 2 0 0 5 4 23 11 2
