Sorry, my bad, it should read either
A = load("U:\\Octave\\datafile.dat");
or
A = load('U:\Octave\datafile.dat');
So you either use the Octave-style double quotes to delimit strings,
then you have to escape the \ with an additional \, or you use single
quotes ' and only need one \ in a Windows/DOS path.
