Hi..I have an excel sheet consisting of say, 10 rows and 5 columns. Now, I need to read these values from the excel sheet, perform some mathematical operation on these values and then store the data in a new array. Please help me out with this.
Also, if there are 'n' such worksheets, I need to select few particular worksheets and then perform the operation on only these sheets and the remaining should remain intact.

make sure the excel sheet you want to import from is in your current directory, then double click it (in the current folder section of your MATLAB window). You will receive options to import it.
Another way (which I prefer) is just copy paste. Right click in your workspace and select 'new'. You can then edit this variable in the variable editor and paste the required fields from your excel file.
