How to read a text file using UART protocol

Hi  am trying to do bare metal programming using nRF52840 dk. I am working on UART protocol where I am trying to read a text file.

My text file look like this:  It has 10 rows and 10 columns

81	116	104	104	121	90	125	110	127	105	
80	116	104	104	121	44	125	110	127	100	
......
......

I have implemented the following functions to read the byte

uint8_t get_char()
{
	NRF_UART0->ENABLE = UART_ENABLE_ENABLE_Enabled;
	NRF_UART0->TASKS_STARTRX = 1UL;

	while (!rxdrdy_ev) {
		/* Put CPU to sleep and wake-up from interrupt */
		__WFE();
		__SEV();
		__WFE();
	}
	rxdrdy_ev = false;

	NRF_UART0->TASKS_STOPRX = 1UL;
	NRF_UART0->ENABLE = UART_ENABLE_ENABLE_Disabled;
	return data;
}

The interrupt handler reads the byte when EVENTS_RXDRDY happens

volatile char data = '/0';
void UARTE0_UART0_IRQHandler()
{

 if(NRF_UART0->EVENTS_RXDRDY == 1){
        data = NRF_UART0->RXD;
        NRF_UART0->EVENTS_RXDRDY = 0;
        rxdrdy_ev = true;
   }
}
In the main file, I am storing the values into a 2d array.
float matrix[ROW_SIZE][COL_SIZE];
    int i,j,n = 0,  zero=(int)'0';  // helper when converting chars to integers;
    uint8_t ch;
	i = 0;
   while(i < 10){
	j = 0;
	while(j < 10){
      ch = get_char();
      if(ch >='0' && ch <='9') n=10*n + (ch-zero);
      else {
        matrix[i][j] = n;
        n=0;
      }
		j++;
	}
		i++;
   }
When I try to debug the code by sending a single character, I am able to receive it and store in the  matrix array correctly. But when I send the whole text file serially using HTerm, I see garbage values in the matrix array. How to read the text file correctly.What am I doing wrong?
