How do I save a '.txt' file as a '.mat' file, using either MATLAB or Python?
I tried using textscan() (in MATLAB), and scipy.io.savemat() (in Python). Both didn't help.

My text file is of the format: value1,value2,value3,valu4 (each row) and has over 1000 rows.

Appreciate any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.

You can use textscan to read the file and save to save the variables into a .mat file

fid = fopen('yourTextFile.txt');

C = textscan(fid,'%f %f %f %f');

fclose(fid);

% maybe change the cells from `C` to a single matrix

M = cell2mat(C);

save('myMatFile.mat','M');

This works because your file seems to have a fixed format.

When I run this, I get the following error:Error using cat Dimensions of matrices being concatenated are not consistent. Error in cell2mat (line 75) m{n} = cat(2,c{n,:});

Can you please give more information about the content of your file and the dimension of each cell in C.
