hey all!
i'm new to matlab and i have this task basically: i have a text file of students' their id's and grades (after that the text goes down a line) and i need to make an array/structure out of it.
the example text is stud_ex.txt. all i know is how to use fopen but beyond that i'm clueless.
i see a lot of people online using things like "%" signs and i have no idea what these mean.
if anyone can shed some light i would really appreciate it.

fopen is for low-level file operations you may not need.
Perhaps try
data = importdata('stud_ex.txt')
Which will give you a struct with three fields:
data: [7×4 double]
textdata: {7×1 cell}
rowheaders: {7×1 cell}
The row headers are irrelevant, since you don't have headers. But you could use data.data and data.textdata.
Split the data array into student IDs and grades.

You're welcome.
There are also intermediate steps you could take:
fid = fopen('stud_ex.txt','r'); % Open file and attach a handle to it
thisline = fgetl(fid);
parsedline = split(firstline);
studentnames{1} = parsedline{1};
% ... do something like this in a "while ~feof(fid)" loop
fclose(fid) % Release the file
Convert the lines to strings for even easier handling.
