OpenMatrix is a mathematical scripting language.
Returns R after copying file(s) or directories from src to dst.
Reads the values of a 2D matrix, R, from the file, f, where the values are comma-separated.
Writes the values of a 2D matrix, m, to the file, f, where the values are comma-separated.
Reads the values of a 2D matrix, R, from the file, f.
Writes the values of a 2D matrix, m, to the file, f.
Closes a file opened by fopen(). Requires the fileID returned by fopen as an argument.
Returns 1 if an end-of-file symbol is encountered.
Display the error status of fileID.
Flush buffered output to fileID to be written the file.
Reads the characters in a file until reaching request_length of characters read. Reads until a new line or end of file if request_length is not provided.
Reads the characters in a file until hitting len of characters read, a new line or end of file if len is not provided.
Returns the directory, name, and extension components of the file filepath.
Opens a file, filename, for read/write operations.
This function writes output to a file using the printf format_string capabilities. The first argument is a fileID returned from an earlier call to fopen.
Reads the binary data of the precision type from the file fileID.
Moves the file pointer to the beginning of the file fileID. Returns 0 on success.
Returns result R after reading a formatted data from file handle, f, specified by template t.
Sets the file pointer to a position in fileID. Returns 0 if successful; returns -1 if unsuccessful.
Returns the current position of the file pointer.
Returns a filename from dir1...dirN and filename fname.
Writes binary data to the file ID.
Returns all entities saved in a Project (.aprj) file: breakpoints, files, plots, source code and variables.
Returns result R after reading a file, f. Different reading mechanisms are used, based on the type of file, f.
Reads an image with the pixel data stored in a matrix R, with functions defined in the omlimgtoolbox.
Writes an image, whose pixel data comes from a matrix, m, with functions defined in the omlimgtoolbox.
Returns true if dir is a directory.
Returns true if the input argument is a file.
Returns true if the application is running on OSX.
