When MATLAB reads a specified file, it attempts to match the data in the file to the format string. If a match occurs, the data is written into the matrix in column order. If a partial match occurs, only the matching data is written to the matrix, and the read operation stops.
This means that the data is read into the resulting matrix in column order. To resolve the above issue, use the following loop:
for i = 1:2
c(i,:)=sscanf(NewArray(i,:)','%*s %d %d %*s',[1,inf])
end
Where the resulting matrix c is:
c 2x2 32 double array
c =
46 6
7 89
