How do I read whitespace character with Textread function?

1 view (last 30 days)
Hi guys, I have a string like this 'Event_Name: NW Kagoshima' in my coord.txt file and I would like to read it in 2 columns. This is what I do:
[name, value]=textread('coord.txt', '%s %s')
value results like a 2 cell array like this: (1st row and 1st column) NW
(2st row and 1st column) Kagoshima
I would it like 1 cell array like this: (1st row and 1st column) NW Kagoshima
Thanks in advance for your help!
