dataINT offers functions for convenient, interactive im-/export of test-based
data files (*.csv, *.dat, *.txt) to or from a Scilab matrix or from a binary
Excel files (*.xls), respectively.
Parameters, to specify the im-/export, can conveniently entered in a dialog
box and the file selection is done by the platform-specific
file selection dialog.
You can specify the following im-/export parameters:
- Field separator (comma, semicolon, tab, space)
- Decimal separator (comma, point)
- Rows and columns you want to import
- Sheet you want to import
- Number of lines to skip, e.g. header line(s)
- Comment header line to describe your data
IMPORTANT: dataINT does not handle data from XML-based Excel files (.xlsx)!
NOTE: dataINT handles doubles only.
The functions can easily integrated in your own scripts to make use of
dataINT's interactive functionality or to simplify your data import in
Scilab's console.
FUNCTIONS:
* DI_read

dataINT is available for Scilab 5.5.x, 6.0.x and 6.1.x. Furthermore
