Extracting Data from file with varying columns
显示 更早的评论
Hi all, Our system is capturing data continuously. Where first 14 columns are always stored in *.txt and *.log file. The 15th column is added only when the image is captured. So the data in file looks like following:
I am asking this question, because I was not successful after trying out importdata, readtable and all possible MATLAB answers. When the pointer comes to the 15th column data. It reads the value for e.g. (here 11) and store it to the next row instead in the same row. Also, the values read after that all are NaN.
It would great, If I am able to load the this data automatically. Using a self written function.
Thank you very much for the help and valuable suggestions in advance.

Try something like this
f = fopen('data.txt');
data = textscan(f, '%f%f%f%f%f%f%f%f%f%f%f%f%f%f%f', 'Headerlines', 1); %%read 15 columns
fclose(f);
data{end} = [data{end}; nan(length(data{1})-length(data{end}))]; %%make length of last column equal to other columns
result = table(data{:})
result will contain the data in the form of table.
Edit: Edited the answer according to the uploaded data file.
