Extracting Exponential Numbers from Cell Arrays

1 次查看(过去 30 天)
I managed to extract data from specific lines in a .txt file, and fit them into 3 different cell arrays. My problem is, I've tried using the regexp command to extract the numbers, but I end up removing the exponential 'E' every time I try it. Here's what I have so far:
FID = fopen('Input.txt');
Cell = textscan(FID,'%s','Delimiter','\n');
fclose(FID);
DATA=Cell{1,1};
Primary_Fission_Rate = DATA(203:89:end);
Primary_Am_Rate = DATA(227:89:end);
Secondary_Am_Rate = DATA(251:89:end);
Tertiary_Am_Rate = DATA(261:89:end);
The format of the last 4 lines of code are basically the same, a 51x1 cell with the output:
FISSION RATE 6.81926E+14 FISS/SEC.
FISSION RATE 5.60842E+14 FISS/SEC.
etc.
I'd like to be able to remove the characters 'FIssion Rate' and 'Fiss/Sec' but keep the exponential.
Thanks in advance.

You're already using textscan, did you try the "Remove Literal String" option so it never even makes it into MATLAB from the text file?
Otherwise, a simple var = strrep(var,'FISSION RATE',''); et al. will do the trick.
Or the new'ish extractBetween.

Thank you very much, the strrep command worked just fine. Didn't realize I had to copy the space in 'FISSION RATE ' exactly.
