Octave can easily load MATLAB files, for example load('names.m'). But while trying to load file formats other than MATLAB file format like load('names.txt') I am getting an error:
error: load: unable to determine file format of 'names.txt'

Octave supports matlab file formats . But to load text files use the following code in terminal load('-ascii','names.txt'); This will load the text file without showing any error.
