Dear listmembers,
after solving my issues with fprintf() by your help in a very elegant manner 
(Thanks again!) I was thinking about a similar way for fscanf().

I had had asked about something like

X,Y=fscanf (infile, "%f %f");

given that "infile" points to a file with two consecutive columns of say 
double values. I was recommended to use "textread" instead what actually 
solved my problem. 

However, given that

fprintf(oufile, "%f %f\n", (X;Y));

would actually solve the "write" side of writing two vectors to a file, I 
thought of a similar attempt to solve this for fscanf, say

[(X;Y)]=fscanf (infile, "%f %f");

but this does not work that way. Any ideas? As readily mentioned, this is only 
for the sake of curiosity, textread does the job ...

Thank you very much,
take care
