how to pull column data from excel into matlab in matlab

To pull column data from Excel into Matlab, first save the Excel file as a .csv (comma-separated values) file. Then, in Matlab, use the readmatrix function to import the data. Specify the name of the .csv file, the delimiter (in this case, a comma), and the range of columns to import. Here's an example code snippet:

main.m
filename = 'example.csv';
delimiter = ',';
startRow = 2;
endRow = 10;
colNum = 2;

data = readmatrix(filename,'Delimiter',delimiter,'Range',[startRow colNum endRow colNum]);
174 chars
8 lines

In this example, the code imports the second column of data from rows 2 through 10 of example.csv into a Matlab array called data. You can adjust the values of startRow, endRow, and colNum to import different ranges of data.
