Hey! Gaurav, thanks for your help. I tried using fread but I am getting some error saying dimension problem. My issue is I have an array in .bin file and another in .text file and I have to use repelem on them. Can you suggest how can I know what is the format of data stored in .bin file ?
Hi Akriti,
Did you try using arguments given in the doc page, along with fread function?
It can be difficult to figure out what the storage format is in a binary file unless you have some information about the expected data range and distribution.
Which program produced the file?
@gaurav yes, I tried different arguments.
@walter These are random numbers generated from Quantum random number generator.
