xlsread isn't storing all the cell values from a column

8 次查看(过去 30 天)
I've been using xlsread for a while now, and I've never had Any problems with it.
Recently, however, whenever I try to import values from an excel sheet, each column having more than one cell (19 rows),
for some reason, only a single, unrelated value is stored in the variable created for that column.
Funnily enough, when i tried using readcell for one of the values (p4), I found that p1, p2 and p3 were saved appropriately, as 18 * 1 matrices.
(bottom right corner)
When I reverted back to xlsread for p4, p1,p2, p3 and p4 were again saved as single nonsensical values, although the plot containing p4 had the correct values.
(bottom right corner)
I've never had a problem with xlsread before, so could anyone give me some insight into what is happening?

This is the third sheet from the excel file that I'm trying to import.
The first column (THETA) is being imported as a 18*1 array, but the next four columns aren't being imported similarly.

I'd suggest actual code instead of screenshots of code. It's a lot easier to work with that. Also attaching a real file so people can try the solution would help out.

Try something like this —
T1 = readtable('YourExcelFile.xlsx', 'Range','A1:E19')
That will import everything as a table, and then refer to the individual variables as —
THETA = T1.Theta;
and so for the rest, although you can simply refer to the individual variables everywhere using their table references.
See the documentations ection on Access Data in Tables for details.

I don't know if this is the problem in your case, but Matlab docs have not recommended the use of xlsread since R2019a. That's not to say it doesn't work in most cases, but there are clearly some known issues with its use

It can't be the problem because I've been using it for half a year so far. No problems until today.

The fifth line is a call to readcell, not xlsread. And the error says, error using readcell.

The issue is in the call to readcell which isn't using the correct syntax. See readcell documentation for details.
It looks like you've tried to port an xlsread call to readcell withought modifying the inputs to match what readcell expects
[~,~,C] = xlsread(file,sheet,range);
becomes:
C = readcell(file,"Sheet",sheet,"Range",range);
addendum:
You probably want readmatrix actually
A = xlsread(file,sheet,range);
becomes:
A = readmatrix(file,"Sheet",sheet,"Range",range);

So I tried using that, and the following ocurred:
A = readmatrix('ALL_PEAKS_2ND_SET.xlsx',"Sheet",'Poly3 for 10s angles vs time',"Range",'A2:A19');
Sheet name 'Poly3 for 10s angles vs time' does not exist or is
not supported. To check if the sheet is supported, specify the
sheet by its worksheet index.

From the example file, it looks like there is only "Sheet1" and no "Poly3 for 10s angles vs time"
The error message is suggesing "specify the sheet by its worksheet index." meaning use a number instead of the name.
