Read msh formatted file generated by Gmsh, and return information of nodes and elements of the selected type elemtype. The parameter elemtype is an integer representing a Gmsh element type, for example,
1
2-node line.
2
3-node triangle.
3
4-node quadrangle.
4
4-node tetrahedron.
5
8-node hexahedron.
More element types can be found in Gmsh documentation (Section 9.1).
