How to load and convert .mat file into numpy 2D array?

Question

I have a data in mat file (observations and features) and i want to load it into numpy 2D array. I dont want to convert it into csv first and then load csv into numpy.

stackoverflow.com/questions/43875194/… illustrates loading a simple MATLAB matrix. If you have cells or structs the loaded dictionary is more complicated. — hpaulj

Use scipy's loadmat (API-docs).

The docs should be sufficient to get you going, but make sure to read the notes.

There is also the io-tutorial with some examples.

So useful. The loadmat() returns a dict type and we can get the array by its key.
