How to make variable names the same as the column headers when importing?

9 次查看(过去 30 天)
Notes:
My column headings are V(001), I(B54)... There are thousands of them.
Currently if I use the import wizard, the column headers do not get used for the variable names. Matlab assigns VarName1, VarName2,...
I am importing a text file.

"Is there a way to have Matlab remove the parenthesis?"
  • With importdata &nbsp AFAIK: No!
  • With textscan &nbsp Yes, but it takes a some lines of code.
Questions
  • Do you really want 3400 separate variables?
  • Do you know the types of the data in each column - string or numerical?

I will not use all of the 3400 variables. The issue is the 100-200 I would use need to manually selected from a list during export. This would take a long time because they are difficult to find and you need to hold down the control key for each. Its easier just to export all 3400 and let matlab turn them all into variables, then comment out the ones I don't need.
All data are numbers.

I think the best approach is to use readtable() so that your fields have the names of your column headers. I think it will throw out the parentheses though.
