Hello, sorry if this question have already been asked, but I could not find
a similar thread. So, I have a .dat ("numbers.dat") file, which I should
open. I believe I should do something like this:
f = open("numbers.dat")
And after that I tried to read it:
readlines(f)
However, Julia writes the Error: "UnicodeError: invalid character index".
My tutor told me that this is a binary file, so what I need is a binary
read, such as fread in C/C++. I tried to read the documentation, tried to
google, but still cannot understand what should I do. Also, a quote from my
tutor, which can probably help you to understand the problem better: "The
first 4 bytes contain an integer (in this case, 1,000,000) and then
1,000,000 floats of 8 bytes each".
Thank you in advance!
