Matlab cannot read "numeric" field from csv
<p>I am trying to read a csv file into Matlab using the following command</p>

<blockquote>
  <p>data=csvread('/econ/research/rd123/RAIS/Chuhang/data/final_samples/growth_regs_RandI_ALL.csv',1,0);</p>
</blockquote>

<p>But matlab produced the following message:</p>

<blockquote>
  <p>{Error using dlmread (line 138) Mismatch between file and format
  string. Trouble reading 'Numeric' field from file (row number 1, field
  number 1) ==>

  <p>Error in csvread (line 47)
      m=dlmread(filename, ',', r, c);</p>

  data=csvread('/econ/research/rd123/RAIS/Chuhang/data/final_samples/growth_regs_RandI_ALL.csv',1,0);</p>
</blockquote>

<p>Does anyone know what the problem might be? Thanks in advance!</p>
