Hello,

I don't have MATLAB here so this is completely untested but the help page for readMat says:


     Arguments

|con|   

Binary |connection <http://127.0.0.1:11101/library/base/html/connections.html>| to which the MAT file structure should be written to. A string is interpreted as filename, which then will be opened (and closed afterwards).


So it should recognize a filename and open it as a binary connection. If it doesn't, try

adj_con <- file(pathnames_adj, open = "b")
mat_adj <- readMat(adj_con)
[...etc...]
close(adj_con)

Hope this helps,

Rui Barradas

Dear users,

I am stucked with a programming problem: I am trying to download a squared adjacency matrix 
from matlab with only 0 or 1. Doing it without a loop at first, I get an error message that 
is, I think, related to the  "mat_adj<-readMat(pathnames_adj)" line. Did 
anybodz encouter already that problem? If so, do I need to change anything in my code in 
order it not to be recurrent? If I run the code a second time, it works fine, but this does 
not help me, as I try to set up a loop for 265 matlab adj matrix, each number representing a 
specific week and the purpose being to have metrics from igraph being generated over the 265 
weeks.

Thank you

CODE to read the file:

rm(list=ls())
library(R.matlab)
path<-setwd("V:/2012/nonweighted_GOVSOV")
pattern_adj<-sprintf("weightmatrix1.mat")
pathnames_adj<-list.files(pattern=pattern_adj,path=path,full.names=T)
cat("Reading MAT file: ", basename(pathnames_adj), "\n", sep="")
mat_adj<-readMat(pathnames_adj)
adj<-do.call(rbind,mat_adj)
library(igraph)
g<-graph.adjacency(adj, mode=c("directed"), weighted=T)
