I have a .txt file that I need to turn into a vector

My .txt file is just "2 4 3 4". I need to turn this into a vector but I dont know how.

I loaded my .txt file into the document by going Grades = load("Grades.txt"); then I tried to make that into a vector by doing CourseGrade = linspace("Grades") but it didnt work. It wants me to put real numbers in there.

Please help me out, thanks!

v=readmatrix('YourFile.txt');

filename = 'Grades.txt';

%first create an example file
example_data = "2 4 3 4";
writelines(example_data, filename);
dbtype(filename)

1     2 4 3 4

%now do the work
Grades = load(filename)

Grades = 1×4

2 4 3 4

%Grades is now a row vector because that is what was in the file.

%if you need it to be a column vector then transpose it

Grades = Grades.'

Grades = 4×1

2 4 3 4
