readcell command undefined?

לק"י

Hi guys,

I try to use readcell command, but it seems it is not recognized by matlab. i thought it may be an external function which needs to be downloaded, but as far as I could tell, it an official function of mathworks.

the code line:

tmp = readcell(fullfile(fileDir, fileNames_sorted{k}));

the error I get:

>> readcell(fullfile(fileDir, fileNames_sorted{k}))
Undefined function or variable 'readcell'.

Thanks!

Amit.

hello again Amit

i think I recognize this line of code... :)

I believe readcell was introduced around R2018 - so if you have an older release I changed the code from readcell to csvread which is much older but still working - there are probably other options also like csvimport

NB : with csvread make sure you have the right amount of header lines defined

%     tmp = readcell(fullfile(fileDir, fileNames_sorted{k})); % original code
    tmp = csvread(fullfile(fileDir, fileNames_sorted{k}),1); % 1 headerline skipped / csvimport should also work

FYI

this works too

tmp = csvimport(fullfile(fileDir, fileNames_sorted{k})); %  csvimport  works too
