Dear Matlab community,
I'm somewhat at beginner level of Matlab scripting and have urge to scan, write down, then edit and reformat a rather large, non-square mixed format file. This seems to be an absolute nightmare with using textscan or scanf functions. The fact of the matter is that the format of the file may vary and the number of lines and/or columns or sparsity of the file is subject to change.
Maybe someone can recommend a path associated with less pain. I'm including an approximate example of the input file format. Any advices are welcome, thanks in advace!
