Read from text file (vw9.out)

I have two matrix generated in ANSYS and written in vw9.out as a text file

A = [

35.217 35.087 34.713 34.138

35.217 35.087 34.713 34.138

47.942 48.091 48.522 49.193

47.942 48.091 48.522 49.193

]

B = [

20.266 19.457 18.691

20.266 19.457 18.691

69.078 70.592 72.097

69.078 70.592 72.097

]

C =[A B ]

I want to import these matrix in matlab.

using fopen('vw9.out','r');

I am not able to do it. Can anybody suggest how to do it.

You can read it using

fid = fopen('vw9.out','r');
fcon = textscan(fid,'%s');

but if all you want to do is to import the matrices the easiest would be to rename the file to vw9.m and execute it as a script.

run('vw9.m')

Thank you run(vw9.m) works great
