How to integrate using trapz function

Hi I am using trapz to get my answer. but i am getting 0 which is not the answer. I have attched my data where Y reprsesnt loads (mg/hr) and x represents time in a number form . Please i will extremely graeful if somebody can help.
Int=trapz(X1,Y);

The variable in X1 seems awfully constant, at 0.0166. The first input to trapz should be the x-coordinate of the points at which you have Y, not the values of "dx". Perhaps what you want is something like:
Ival = trapz(cumsum(X1),Y);

Thank you so much
Hi,
How should i write if I have one row of X1 value (1X525595) as shown above but Y row consist of (56X525595). I need int (trapz) for all the 56 combination. Please can you help on this.
How to get Trapz for all 56 combination. This is what ineed. Thanks
If you look at the help for trapz you will read:
Z = trapz(X,Y,DIM) or trapz(Y,DIM) integrates across dimension DIM
of Y. The length of X must be the same as size(Y,DIM)).
That means that your call to trapz would be something like:
z_all = trapz(cumsum(X1),Y,2);
