I have program code and saved data files created using the Research Systems, Inc. Interactive Data Language software, and I would like to import these into MATLAB.

The ability to read, write, execute, or convert program code created using IDL is not available in MATLAB.

To work around this, you can use the Low-Level File I/O functions of MATLAB (e.g. FOPEN, FREAD, FWRITE, FCLOSE), provided that the file format of the IDL data file is known.
