Need to read and write Excel files

[Kelly]

I have some code in Matlab that could be executed under freemat if it
could read and write to Excel. I don't have the back ground to write
the code to do this. Has anyone looked at this idea and how it could
be implemented?

What specific functionality do you need in what is written to Excel? You can import data into Excel via 'csvwrite' in FreeMat, and read it in using either 'csvread' or 'dlmread'. Would it be enough for you to simply import/export data, or do you need more functionality than that?

A=rand(3);
csvwrite('test',A); % to write the 3x3 random matrix
B = csvread('test'); % to read it back
sum(sum(A-B)) % they are the same if 0

Hello,

I am just learning some FreeMat and am comparing it to Matlab.  I used Matlab in school and now need some alternative to do what Matlab used to do for me. 

Anyways, you seem to know about importing files in FreeMat.  I tried the load function and it seems to have a maximum size it will load of 1537 rows.  Do you know anything about that?  I need something to deal with larger files than that so if there is a work around or I will need to seek an alternative program. 

Thanks a lot for any help
