fgetl - Read line from file, removing newline characters
Syntax
tline = fgetl(fileID)
Description
tline = fgetl(fileID) returns
the next line of the specified file, removing the newline characters. fileID is
an integer file identifier obtained from fopen. tline is
a text string unless the line contains only the end-of-file marker.
In this case, tline is the numeric value -1.
fgetl reads characters using the encoding
scheme associated with the file. To specify the encoding scheme, use fopen.
Examples
Read and display the file fgetl.m one line
at a time:
fid = fopen('fgetl.m');
tline = fgetl(fid);
while ischar(tline)
disp(tline)
tline = fgetl(fid);
end
fclose(fid);Compare these results to the fgets example,
which replaces the calls to fgetl with fgets.
