Hi dear Community,
I need to import csv data from Trials into MATLAB. The dataset is as follows:
2016/11/02 17:51:54,017;256,451812744141;0;0;0,130208298563957
I tried to achieve the import with csvread, but I guess, matlab cannot handle date and time in one cell?! Another problem may be, that the decimal delimiter symbol is ',' and not '.'. Actually, I don't need the date, I only need the time and the difference of the time between adjacent measurements as an additional column.
Help is very appreciated, thanks therefore in advance! Best Wishes, Georg

Hi George,
If you're using R2016b you can import this directly, but it will take a little bit of configuration The following should work:
opts = detectImportOptions(yourfilename,'Delimiter',';')
opts.VariableTypes = {'datetime','double','double','double','double'};
opts = setvaropts(opts,1,'InputFormat','yyyy/MM/DD HH:mm:ss,SSS');
opts = setvaropts(opts,2:5,'DecimalSeparator',',');
T = readtable(yourfilename,opts)

Oh perfect, this works very fine!! In the meantime, I tried to achieve a solution with the editor and excel, but this solution is definitely more elegant!
Thank you all for your answers.

Hi Georg,
if you already extracted the required string, it can easily be converted into a datetime variable using a custom inputformat (that is also capable of dealing with commas)
mytimevar = datetime('2016/11/02 17:51:54,017', 'InputFormat', 'yyyy/MM/DD HH:mm:ss,SSS');
if you still need to extract the string I may suggest stringsplit

Thanks for your answer dbmn, but it is only half the answer.
Well, as said, matlab throws an error if I make the csv import.
The code is as follows:
data = csvread('20161102_R05_1.csv',';',1);
and the resulting error (yes, I have skipped the header!)
Error using dlmread (line 138)
HeaderLines must be integer-valued.
Error in csvread (line 47)
m=dlmread(filename, ',', r, c);
Error in Tool_Carrier_Motion_Trial (line 10)
data = csvread('20161102_R05_1.csv',';',1);

I just checked with a csv-file that i created by copying your example line 5 times.
Here is what I found
  • csvread gives you the error you specified (most likely due to the fact, that the file is not "real csv" due to the additional commas
  • one solution is to use readtable
data = readtable('20161102_R05_1.csv');
  • Another possibility with more control is to use textscan
fid = fopen('20161102_R05_1.csv','r');
data={};
while ~feof(fid)
data(end+1,:) = textscan(fid, '%s%s%s%s%s', 1, 'delimiter',';');
end
fclose(fid);
