How to read lines from cell

this time I'm trying to process data from a .txt file.

my goal is to extrat the information at specific lines.

I load my file

temp3 = regexp(fileread('DT_Diagra_ScanTool_DT62234_T0410_SHAP_001.txt'), '\r?\n', 'split')';

I got a 680x1 cell

I made and index to find the line in whic is the value I wnat.

idc = strfind(temp3,'PID 01');
idx = ~cellfun('isempty',idc);

is there any way to get all the '0' and '1' in that row?

after that I will also need to get the next 4 lines below and end up getting below values

0000 0000

0000 0111

1110 0101

1110 0101

as always any feedback will be high appreciated

As always, attach a sample text file itself...more than likely you can read the file directly avoiding the cells, but without the file to work with, we're shooting in the dark...

my bad, please find attached the file.

anyother comment please let me know.

thanks

S = readlines('T04102.txt');
X = find(startsWith(S,'PID 01'));
F = @(x) regexp(S(x:x+3),'[01]{4}\s+[01]{4}','once','match');
C = arrayfun(F,X, 'uni',0);
C{:}

ans = 4x1 string array
    "1000 0001"
    "0000 0100"
    "0000 0000"
    "0000 0000"

ans = 4x1 string array
    "0000 0000"
    "0000 0111"
    "1110 0101"
    "1110 0101"

Hi @A-Rod

As @dpb commented - the need to attach the raw data so it will help all of us to debug

Anyhow -I have imitated your data:

Look at the solution below

I assume that temp3 is a cellarray

I have used "contains" function instead of "strfind"

The rest - extract relevant data

% Imitating the READ output of the file
temp3 = repmat({''}, 680,1);
temp3{215} = 'PID 01000 000MIL on; fault code entries';
temp3{216} = '0000 0100';
temp3{217} = '0000 0000';
temp3{218} = '0000 0000Monitor status since DTCs cleared';

% Extracting data
idx = cell2mat(cellfun(@(x) contains(x, 'PID 01'),temp3,'uni',0));
i1 = find(idx);
for iLine = 0:3
    re = regexp(temp3{i1+iLine},'\d+\s+\d+','match');
    line1 = re{1}; % get all the '0' and '1'  in that row
    disp(line1);
end

thank you for your feedback.

this works and it gives what I'm looking for but when I load my .txt file I got this error:

Error using regexp

Invalid option for regexp: \d+\s+\d+.
