The textscan function using a numeric format descriptor string will automatically stop when it encounters:
*Element, type=C3D4
so this is actually a straightforward problem:
fidi = fopen('Copy_of_Job-1.txt','rt');
D = textscan(fidi, '%f%f%f%f', 'HeaderLines',9, 'Delimiter',',', 'CollectOutput',1);
fclose(fidi);
with ‘D’ being a (1418x4) double matrix.
