Hi,

you are calling fclose with the file name, but you need to call fclose
with the stream handle fid:
fclose(fid);

>From your example function, it seems like you want to read a delimited
text file with numbers. This is already implemented in "dlmread", and
usually A=load(file) also does the job.
Otherwise, you could still replace the inner while loop with strtok by
using str2num which can handle entire delimited strings directly:
> octave:5> str2num("3.4\t4.5\t5.6")
