Hi, I’ve got a small issue with reading data from Matlab generated csv files. First some general info: OS: MAC OS Catalina 10.15.3 Fortran compiler: gfortran 9.2 (update oct 2019, reportedly for Catalina OS). programming environment: Elcipse 2019-12 (4.14.0) Here is the code I’m having trouble with: filename='positie_frame_cam' extension='.txt' do icam=1,6,1 write (getal,'(I1)') icam ! converting integer to string using an 'internal file' totalname=filename//getal//extension print*,totalname open(unit=icam+10,file=totalname, form='formatted',action='read') nlines(icam)=0 iop=0 i=0 do while (iop.ge.0) i=i+1 write(0,*)' regel nummer ',i read(icam+10,*,iostat=iop)tel,DUMY(1),DUMY(2),& DUMY(3),DUMY(4),DUMY(5),DUMY(6),DUMY(7) write(0,*) 'iostat=',iop write(0,*) tel,DUMY(1),DUMY(2),& DUMY(3),DUMY(4),DUMY(5),DUMY(6),DUMY(7) nlines(icam)=nlines(icam)+1 if (iop.ge.0) then nlines(icam)=nlines(icam)-1 write(0,*) 'something went wrong!' close(icam+10) !exit else endif if (iop.eq.-1)then write(0,*)'eof' close(icam+10) exit endif end do end do Here is an example of the 6 files i’m trying to read: 1,0.00000000,0.36611265,0.05310654,0.60107656,-0.02129885,0.99435631,-0.10393212 1,0.00833892,0.36611265,0.05310654,0.60107656,-0.02129885,0.99435631,-0.10393212 1,0.01667784,0.36486442,0.05303874,0.59982310,-0.02163688,0.99431165,-0.10428895 1,0.02501677,0.35989577,0.05282108,0.59855295,-0.02244646,0.99420581,-0.10512358 1,0.03335569,0.35492529,0.05268669,0.59727332,-0.02325602,0.99409861,-0.10595804 1,0.04169461,0.35368452,0.05266613,0.59726437,-0.02341294,0.99407797,-0.10611699 1,0.05003353,0.35491671,0.05268653,0.59602339,-0.02343777,0.99407317,-0.10615646 1,0.05837246,0.35862988,0.05277895,0.59479665,-0.02314764,0.99410979,-0.10587683 1,0.06671138,0.36359068,0.05297500,0.59481924,-0.02251773,0.99419203,-0.10523858 1,0.07505030,0.36483061,0.05303698,0.59482341,-0.02236010,0.99421248,-0.10507885 This is the output I get for one file: Last login: Thu Mar 12 09:19:00 on ttys001 /Users/fclemens/eclipse-workspace/Fit_ellipsoid/Release/Fit_ellipsoid ; exit; The default interactive shell is now zsh.

I’m not sure how to tackle this issue? Any suggestions? kind regards Francois Clemens
