How do I name the columns of my table by the names of row 1?

I have inserted a table into matlab using this

pos=readtable("Pos_data.csv")

When I do this in R, the row names in row 1 become the columne names. However, in Matlab it does not do this. Please could you tell me how I name the columns based on the names in row 1 of the table ( as this is where the title of the columns are currently).

Thank-you,

Check out the ReadVariableNames property; set it to true.

pos=readtable("Pos_data.csv",'ReadVariableNames',true)

Did you try reading the documentation page for readtable?

It seems that all you need to do is this:

pos=readtable("Pos_data.csv",'ReadVariableNames',true)
