Write a matrix to an ASCII delimited file

Syntax

Description

The dlmwrite command converts a MATLAB matrix into an ASCII-format file readable by spreadsheet programs.

dlmwrite(filename,A,delimiter) writes matrix A into the upper left-most cell of the ASCII-format spreadsheet file filename, and uses the delimiter to separate matrix elements. Specify '\t' to produce tab-delimited files. Any elements whose value is 0 will be omitted. For example, the array [1 0 2] will appear in a file as '1,,2' when the delimiter is a comma.

dlmwrite(filename,A,delimiter,r,c) writes A into filename, starting at spreadsheet cell r and c, with delimiter used to separate matrix elements.


Arguments

delimiter
The character separating individual matrix elements in the ASCII- format spreadsheet file. A comma (,) is the default delimiter.
r,c
The spreadsheet cell into which the upper-left-most matrix element is written.
