HOW TO OPEN .DAT FILE?

Answers (1)

opt = detectImportOptions('WRAS-C.txt');
t = readtable('WRAS-C.txt', opt);
The detectImportOptions part needs R2016b or later.
For earlier releases, the best way depends upon which MATLAB release you are using.

THANK YOU,,,,,
BUT MY FILE IS IN .DAT FORMATE.
No it isn't.
>> !unzip -t WRAS-C.zip
Archive: WRAS-C.zip
testing: WRAS-C.txt OK
No errors detected in compressed data of WRAS-C.zip.
You have a .txt file not a .dat file.
But if what you really had is WRAS-C.dat then
filename = 'WRAS-C.dat';
opt = detectImportOptions(filename, 'filetype', 'text');
t = readtable(filename, opt);
