Hey, I've got a text file created by my arduino (using megunolink) and it contains a 60x60 array of data. An 5x5 example of the code layout would look like:
[10 15 20 25 30; 11 16 21 26 31; 12 17 22 27 32; 13 18 23 28 33; 14 19 24 29 34;]
How can I import this directly into matlab as a matrix? Also, would it be easier if I made the arduino output as literally just a massive list of 3600 numbers?
Cheers, Harris

Question:
How the data is in your file. Is it in single line including comma and braces (as you are showing above) or in row & column form ?
