Import Labview Text file with lines of text above a two column data set

Hey all,

How would I go about making the first column of the data into a vector and the second into another vector? For reference, the file format is a text file

hello

there are 10 header lines in your file (attached for double check)

code is simply :

>> data = readmatrix('Data.txt',"NumHeaderLines",10);
>> data

data =

    0.3240         0
    0.3870         0
    0.2290         0
    0.2310         0
    0.1840         0
    0.1420         0
    0.1210         0
    0.0280         0
