How to replace all the strings of a csv file with NaN using textscan and "TreatAsEmpty" ?

2 次查看(过去 30 天)
I'm using textscan to read huge csv file.
Theses files contain numbers and strings.
How to replace all the string with NaN using "TreatAsEmpty" ?
The location of the strings depend on the file and the strings are different for each file.
For example a csv file like this :
1 3 5 6 temp 56 d 3
4 f 45 5 6 H 4 5
How to obtain that ?
1 3 5 6 NaN 56 NaN 3
4 NaN 45 5 6 NaN 4 5
Thank you for your help !
Best,

OTOH,
>> fid=fopen('ziad.txt');
>> fmt=repmat('%s',1,8);
>> c=textscan(fid,fmt,'collectoutput',1);
>> fid=fclose(fid);
>> data=str2double(c{:})
data =
1 3 5 6 NaN 56 NaN 3
4 NaN 45 5 6 NaN 4 5

Hello,
Thank you for your answer.
But I work with big csv files (6000 rows 1000 columns) and it takes too many time to read all as string.
What about using "TreatasEmpty" option of textscan ?

That's not all that big; wouldn't think it too bad on time. What did it take?
As noted, you would have to have a complete list of all text fields in the file with an exact match for every one. Do you know that a priori?
I can't help but think even if did it wouldn't take quite a lot longer than the above.
