How to import data from a .csv file to a matrix using C?

[amun]

Thanks in advance.
I want to import data (consisting of numbers in type double) from a .csv file to a matrix in my C program.

Can anybody help me find or write the proper function? The function will be very similar to load() of MATLAB, but i need to create the one for C language.

Aydin.

Re: C Question

Can you properly read the *.csv file extension. Can this file be opened with the Microsoft Notepad? I asked you so, because to be able to read it, you must know how the file is written. As long ago, I had seen the C program, that was capable of making the Acrobat file as an Output. So people can actually view the output graph, value, etc in the PDF format. So you must actually know how to tackle with the CSV extension.
Afterward, you need to make algoritm that would convert and do computations, as you like and in the end you have to decide what kind of output you want to have.

C Question

It should be quite easy. The file is a text file with comma seperated values. You just need to open the file, and parse the values using the commas as delimiters, then convert the assci values into doubles.
Any C tutorial wil have file I/O examples.

look in <stdio.h> and <stdlib.h> for the functions you need.
