URL: <http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?33580> Summary: dlmread does not function as advertised Project: GNU Octave Submitted by: None Submitted on: Thu 16 Jun 2011 05:07:19 PM UTC Category: None Severity: 3 - Normal Priority: 5 - Normal Item Group: Incorrect Result Status: None Assigned to: None Originator Name: Dan Whitney Originator Email: address@hidden Open/Closed: Open Discussion Lock: Any Release: 3.2.3 Operating System: Mac OS _______________________________________________________ Details: The documentation simply says to use dlmread as though there was nothing to it but to do it. But in fact dlmread (and csvread) wants LF only as the end of line marker and will not recoginze CR or (I think) CRLF. A simple excel csv file ends its lines in CR and dlmread reads it in as one long string instead of a set of lines. Matlab reads such files effortlessly. It seems to be a shame that such a simple command does not work. I have lots of network models saved as excel csv files and I find I have to convert each one to a text file using Word and save them as LF only text files. This does not ruin my life but it is a needless pain. I recorded this but as v 3.2.3 but v 3.4.0 does the same thing. _______________________________________________________ File Attachments: ------------------------------------------------------- Date: Thu 16 Jun 2011 05:07:19 PM UTC Name: shanghai_node_list2.csv Size: 661B By: None The csv file is read incorrectly.
