Are you suggesting that you have control over the format of the file you will feed to MATLAB? The "easiest" may be a simple comma-separated value file (.csv). In MATLAB, navigate to the folder where the file exists and double-click it. The Import Tool should start and may just do the right thing.

C99? Sorry, I don't know about that. When I hear "C99", I think of the C programming language.
