The TSV file may be imported using the “readtable” function as a text file, while specifying the delimiter as a tab.

Please refer to the line of code below for a demonstration:

t = readtable("data.tsv", "FileType","text",'Delimiter', '\t');

For more information on the "FileType" options, please refer to the documentation link below:
