topic Open binary data in JMP? in Discussions https://community.jmp.com/t5/Discussions/Open-binary-data-in-JMP/m-p/3462#M3462 I was wondering if its possible to read raw binary data into a JMP script variable? (similar to fread() in Matlab) <BR /><BR />Currently to analyze some data that is saved in binary format, I run Matlab to pull the data and save it into a *.csv, which I then load into JMP for plotting/statistical analysis. I'd prefer to be able to just run one script rather than jumping from program to program.

First use <CODE>Open Text File()</CODE> with the "blob" argument which will read the entire file into a blob (Binary Large OBject). For there JMP provides a few functions to extracting data from a blob. The most powerful is <CODE>Blob To Matrix()</CODE> is the file contains a run to simmilar data (integers or floating point numbers, for instance). Use <CODE>Blob Peek()</CODE> to extract a subblob to get the part you want to convert.</P></BODY></HTML> Fri, 24 Jun 2011 01:14:26 GMT https://community.jmp.com/t5/Discussions/Open-binary-data-in-JMP/m-p/3463#M3463 XanGregg 2011-06-24T01:14:26Z
