Hi
I'm using textscan to read text from instrument. text file looks like this :
-000.26
0000.00
-001.26
0000.00
-011.26
0000.00
-222.26
0000.00...etc.
The output of the device is in kg(kilograms). I want to read data as g(grams) without the minus and every other line(skip lines with zeroes).
Example :
-000.26 = 260
-001.26 = 1260
-011.26 = 11260
-111.26 = 111260
I used '%f32', but it reads as 0.2600(still in kg).
Thanks!

Use a %f format, take the absolute value, multiply by 1000, and round().
