load text file from mathscripts

[qing_shan61]

I have a data file called 'calibration.dat' in my user directory.  I can see the file by using dir or type 'calibration.dat'.  But I cannot read it into a matrix by following Matlab command such as load calibration.dat. I also tried to use load 'calibration.dat', it did not work either.   Please help.  Thanks in advance.

Hi,

Have you correctly set MathScript work path? Moreover, you should use the following syntax to load from the file

a = load('calibration.dat');
