token = strtok('str')
uses the default delimiters, the white space characters. These include tabs (ASCII 9), carriage returns (ASCII 13), and spaces (ASCII 32).
[token,rem] = strtok(...)
returns the remainder rem of the original string. The remainder consists of all characters from the first delimiter on.
