Hi Mithushan,
I understand that there are centres and radii for several spheres in the attached text file and you wish to generate a 3d matrix where all the interior points of the spheres are marked as 1, while the remaining points are marked as 0.
You can try utilizing the “meshgrid” function in MATLAB and then use vector operations and comparisons to generate this type of matrix.
Here is an example code which shows this for a sample sphere:
% Dimensions of the matrix
matrixSize = [10, 10, 10];
% Center coordinates of the sphere
center = [5, 5, 5];
% Radius of the sphere
radius = 4;
% Generate the coordinates of the matrix
[X, Y, Z] = meshgrid(1:matrixSize(2), 1:matrixSize(1), 1:matrixSize(3));
% Calculate the distance from each point to the center of the sphere
distances = sqrt((X - center(1)).^2 + (Y - center(2)).^2 + (Z - center(3)).^2);
% Create the 3D matrix with 1s inside the sphere and 0s outside
matrix = distances <= radius;
% Plot the 3D matrix
figure;
isosurface(X, Y, Z, matrix, 0.5);
axis equal;
xlabel('X');
ylabel('Y');
zlabel('Z');
To generate the matrix for all the spheres, you can iterate over the text file using a loop and apply the same steps for each sphere. You can utilize the “fopen” and “textscan” functions in MATLAB to read a text file.
Please refer to the following documentation for more information about the mentioned functions:

- isosurface: https://in.mathworks.com/help/matlab/ref/isosurface.html
- fopen: https://in.mathworks.com/help/matlab/ref/fopen.html
- textscan: https://in.mathworks.com/help/matlab/ref/textscan.html
Hope this information helps resolving the query.
