How can I compare variables in two different scripts and two different data sets?

I am very new to Matlab and am struggling in trying to compare two different data sets in matlab that are called by two different codes. I am trying to compare my data to data located in the World Ocean Atlas via a script in World Ocean Database. Can someone please explain how I can go about calling one from the other?

Hi,

In general, there are several steps you'd need to perform to compare the data from different data files.

1. Read/import data from data source files into MATLAB, using e.g, xlsread() if your data in .xls, csvread(), dlmread(), uiimport(), or fopen()+fscanf()+fclose(), etc options
2. Tabulate/augment or plot the imported data in order to be able to compare them
3. etc.

Good luck.
