有字符csv文件导入matlab,将大量CSV文件导入Matlab

I have a CSV file 1.6 GB large, that I need to feed into matlab. I will have to do this frequently and I need it to run quickly. The file is of the form:

20111205 00:00.2 99.18 6 E

20111205 00:00.2 99.18 5 E

20111205 00:00.2 99.18 1 E

20111205 00:00.2 99.195 5 E

20111205 00:00.2 99.195 5 E

20111205 01:27.0 99.19 5 E

20111205 02:01.4 99.185 1 E

20111205 02:01.4 99.185 1 E

20111205 02:01.4 99.185 1 E

20111205 02:01.4 99.185 1 E

The code I have right now is the following:

tic;

format long g

fid = fopen('C:\Program Files\MATLAB\R2013a\EDU13.csv','r');

[c] = fscanf(fid, '%d,%d:%d.%d,%f,%d,%c');

c = reshape(c, 7, length(c)/7)

toc;

But this is far too slow. I would appreciate a method of getting this CSV file into matlab in the most efficient manner possible. Thank you!

Consider using a binary file format. Binary files are much smaller and don't need to be converted by MATLAB into the binary format. Hence they are much faster to read and write. They may also be more accurate (precision may be higher).
