Hello eveyone
I have a file with .mat extension file which I cant load and I get the following errror:
Not a binary MAT-file. Try load -ASCII to read as text.
I tried using dlmread('') command and also tried addpath('') but none of them worked.
I am attaching the file.
load('._lim1020_x1100_y7140.089.19.Vectrino Profiler.00000_y_D=0.3.mat');
Could you help me with this?
Thanks

Then zip it up and attach the zip file.

I'm still not seeing your mat file or zip file. Where is it?

  1. Use matfile to read the file?
  2. On linux, try this from a terminal
hexdump -c your_matfile.mat | more
3. On Windows, try this from a terminal
format-hex your_matfile.mat | more
Post the first line here.

Can you find it within matlab? You can do a copy and rename from matlab as well.
