Problem with export txt file and the delimited value

Hi all,

I want to export the results of a moving average of period 5 to a .txt file. But when I do the following code:

dlmwrite(newName, fresult,'precision','%.5f');

Delimited in the .txt file it is as follows:

1.12084
1.12091
1.12094
1.12091
1.12086

How I can do to appear "," or ";" provided that the number of decimal places is maintained.

thank you very much

dlmwrite() only puts delimiters between columns, as otherwise programs would think that there was another column that happened to be empty.

You might want to use

dlmwrite(newname, fresult', 'precisiton', '%.5f');

to put everything on one line.

But if you really need the single column and you need ';' on the end of the lines, then you can hack a little:

dlmwrite(newName, fresult,'precision','%.5f;');

notice the delimiter added to the end of the precision specification.
