Import a vector including strings and numbers

Hi all,

I have a series of data including strings (e.g. stars) and numbers like below:

A= [*0.29  *0.60  *0.54  *0.72
*0.45  *0.62  *0.64  *0.70
*0.37  *0.60  *0.01  *0.70
*0.56  *0.60  *0.85  *0.65
*0.49  *0.63  *0.89  *0.61
*0.48  *0.62  *0.82  *0.70
*0.45  *0.66  *0.76  *0.74
*0.41  *0.74  *0.77  *0.69
*0.49  *0.66  *0.97  *0.74
*0.51  *0.69  *0.55  *0.74
*0.64  *0.72  *0.80  *0.74
*0.44  *0.69  *0.79  *0.83
*0.44  *0.73  *0.44  *0.73];

How can I import this vector?? Thanks

Or:

fid = fopen('test.txt');
A = reshape(fscanf(fid, '*%g ', Inf), [], 4);
fclose(fid);
