Question

I want to import all data from ascii file exclude the first row that is a description. I can import all data correctly if that line missing. I’ve used imporData.

Edit:
I’ve resolved it just moving the file pointer ahead by one.
This is the code

FH = fopen(f_old,'rb');
firstRowString = fgetl(FH);

Answer 1

use

A = importdata(filename,delimiterIn,headerlinesIn)

This can load data from an ASCII file reading numeric data starting from line headerlinesIn+1 where delimiterIn is the column separator character, specified as a string. The default character is interpreted from the file. Use ‘\t’ for tab.
