How to read .log file and extract required data ?

I have a simulated file in .log format, how to read this file and extract data from a particular row/column ?

Answer 1

[KL]

if the file has table like structure just use,

data = readtable('yourfilename.log')

if you don't want the output as table but an array, then

 data  = dlmread('yourfilename.log')

Neither works actually. it gives me as error:

data2=readtable(files{i,1})

The file extension '.log' is not recognized.
