I have made this matlab code which reads and prints the data from $.$dat files:function data $=$ readData$($filename$)$

filename$=$input$(\text{'}$Enter file name: $\text{'},\text{'}$s$\text{'})$;

fid $=$ fopen$($filename$,\text{'}$r$\text{'})$;

if fid $==-1$

error$([\text{'}$Error opening file $\text{'}$ filename$])$;

end

data $=$ struct$()$;

while ~feof$($fid$)$

line $=$ fgetl$($fid$)$;

if isempty$($line$)$

continue;

end

$\%$ Split the line into parameter and value

$[$parameter$,$ value$]=$ strtok$($line$,\text{'}$:$\text{'})$;

$\%$ Remove the colon and whitespace from the value

value $=$ strtrim$($strrep$($value$,\text{'}$:$\text{'},\text{'}\text{'}))$;

$\%$ Remove comments $($lines starting with $\text{'}$#$\text{'})$

value $=$ strtok$($value$,\text{'}$#$\text{'})$;

$\%$ Convert the value to a number if it is not empty

if ~isempty$($value$)$

numValue $=$ str$2$double$($value$)$;

$\%$ Check if the conversion was successful

if ~isnan$($numValue$)$

data.$($strtrim$($parameter$))=$ numValue;

else

warning$([\text{'}$Could not convert value for parameter $\text{'}$ parameter $\text{'}$ to a number.$\text{'}])$;

end

else

warning$([\text{'}$Empty value for parameter $\text{'}$ parameter $\text{'}.\text{'}])$;

end

end

fclose$($fid$)$;

end

how can I make it more similar to my proffesors way which is $($ based on another exercise$)$:function $[$v$,$ iline$]=$ getlabelreals$9($fr$,$ fn$,$ iline, lab, n$,$ icod$)$

$\%$Diabase n pragmatikoys ariqmoys; an icod $==1$ prepei na einai qetikoi.

$[$dline$,$ iline$]=$ fgetlc$($fr$,$ iline$)$;

if dline $==-1$

error$(\text{'}$Unexpected end of file $\%$s after line $\%$d: label $"\%$s$"$ was

expected', fn$,$ iline, lab$)$;

end

dl $=$ strsplit$($strtrim$($dline$),\text{'}$:$\text{'})$;

if ~strcmp$($dl$\{1\},$ lab$)$

error$(\text{'}$Error at line $\%$d of file $\%$s: label $"\%$s$"$ was expected', iline, fn$,$

lab$)$;

elseif length$($dl$)<2$

error$(\text{'}$Error at line $\%$d of file $\%$s: $\%$d real numbers were expected',

iline, fn$,$ n$)$;

end

dline $=$ dl$\{2\}$;

v $=$ str$2$num$($dline$)$;

if length$($v$)<$ n;

error$(\text{'}$Error at line $\%$d of file $\%$s: $\%$d real numbers were expected',

iline, fn$,$ n$)$;

end

if icod $==1$ && any$($v $<=0)$

error$(\text{'}$Error at line $\%$d of file $\%$s: $\%$d positive real numbers were

expected', iline, fn$,$ n$)$;

end

end

clear; clc; close all;

while true

pref $=$ input$(\text{'}$Enter file prefix: $\text{'},\text{'}$s$\text{'})$;

fn $=[$pref $\text{'}.$pro'$]$; $\%$Complete filename: prefix$+$suffix

fr $=$ fopen$($fn$,\text{'}$r$\text{'})$;

if fr $>0$

break

end

fprintf$(\text{'}$Can not find$/$open $\%$s$.$ Please try again.

end

iline $=0$;

$[$temp$,$ iline$]=$ getlabelreals$($fn$,$ fr$,$ iline, 'ELASTIC CONSTANTS:$\text{'},2,1)$;

E $=$ temp$(1)$

v $=$ temp$(2)$

$[$g$,$ iline$]=$ getlabelreals$($fn$,$ fr$,$ iline, 'SPECIFIC WEIGHT:$\text{'},1,1)$;
