I'm trying to read text from a file and put it into various collums. It works when I use the following txt and script:
My txt file looks like:
{co-ordinates 1.5 2.5 4.8 weighting 11.713}{co-ordinates 2.5 2.8 1.7 weighting 21.4}{co-ordinates 1.5 2.5 4.8 weighting 11.7}
My code looks like:
fopen practice2.txt
str = fileread('practice2.txt')
mat = sscanf(str,'{co-ordinates%f%f%f weighting%f}',[4,Inf]).'
mat =
1.5000 2.5000 4.8000 11.7130
2.5000 2.8000 1.7000 21.4000
1.5000 2.5000 4.8000 11.7000
Now im trying to use a different txt file that looks like this:
{
co-ordinates 102.10 93.30 128.50
weighting 1.000000}
{
co-ordinates 99.60 98.50 124.00
weighting 0.622901
}
and now all of a sudden the code doesn't work at all!? Any idea why it's no longer working and how to fix it? Thanks!

Can you attach to your question an example file

I've uploaded the text file! It has a different file name than in the code but i'm aware of this.

"now all of a sudden the code doesn't work at all!"
Well, yes that would be because the text portion in your sample file is not 'co-ordinates' and 'weighting' but 'position' and 'weight', so of course when sscanf looks for 'co-ordinates' it can't fail it and aborts. You could change your sscanf format to reflect the actual text of the file:
mat = sscanf(str,' { position%f%f%f weight%f}'), [4, Inf]).'
or just tell sscanf to ignore the text whatever it is, so it works in both cases:
mat = sscanf(str, ' {%*s%f%f%f%*s%f}', [4, Inf]).'

Actually, your second option seems to have worked!! I wonder why it wasn't working when using 'position' and 'weight'... thanks :)

Oh I forgot to say, the line:
fopen practice2new.txt
is completely unnecessary. For a start, that's not how you use fopen and this will leave the file open so may prevent other programs from accessing it. In any case, fileread opens the file on its own.
sscanf has so weird logic which always baffles me. With the first syntax you do need to be careful about the spaces around the text. With the %*s, the spaces are not required.
Note that you could always remove all the extra whitespace in your file with:
str = fileread('practice2.txt');
str = regexprep(str, '\s+', ' '); %replace all sequences of whitespaces (tab, spaces, line ends, etc) by just one space
but that's not really required for sscanf.
