% and plot it

% open the data file to read - r for read, t for text
 fid = fopen('exp.txt','rt');

% formatted scanf - "vectorized"... don't need loop structure!
% [2, inf] describes the dimension of A
[A] = fscanf(fid, '%f', [2, inf])

%close the file
fclose(fid);

% do the plotting
disp('Press Enter to see the plot')
