error: load: unable to determine file format of
'fmt2_PlanetaryMovements.csv'
Planetary Movements for March, 2017:
Entry of planets into signs
Surya enters Pisces 14 19:38:59
Mangala enters Aries 1 23:05:23
Budha enters Pisces 8 22:53:52...
This does not look at all like a .csv file: CSV stands for 'comma
separated values', i.e. the lines in the file should look like
"somestring", 1.2, 3.4
.....
Idea is to enter the positions into a cell and reshape the 3 sections as in
this file. What is the best way to read such a file? Just want to read this
file either as csv, excel or rtf. File does not get loaded. Textread is
quite round about.
Yes, but since your file is fairly unstructured, you may have to use
textread(). Can you change the generation of the file so that it
actually is a .csv format?
load fmt2_PlanetaryMovements.csv
the load command is designed for Octave/Matlab own file
format---actually, if you have control over the output of your data
files, you could write them to mimic the Octave text format,
perhaps; that would make it very easy to read it in.
