How do I save data to a txt file? I want to create a simple two column text file, where the first column is the data from an nx1 matrix and the second column is a different n x 1 matrix. I also want column headings in the first row of each column.
thanks

the problem is you are trying to store them in an array whereas you have to store them in a cell array since each file is of different size Try this code
fileName={'new1.txt', 'new2.txt', 'new3.txt'};
%open file identifier
fid=fopen('MyFile.txt','w');
for k=1:length(fileName)
%read the file name as string including delimiters and next lines
List=textread(fileName{1,k},'%s','delimiter','\n');
%arrange them in order of k if you want in a cell array
FinalList{k,1}=List;
%or print them into a file.
fprintf(fid, [cell2mat(List) '\n']);
end
%close file indentifier
fclose(fid)

try writetable or writecell commands.

To write a text file with columns of data that have variable names, use the “writetable” function. First, create the data to write, put it in a table with variable names, and then write the data to text file.
% Create two columns of data
A = rand(10,1);
B = rand(10,1);
% Create a table with the data and variable names
T = table(A, B, 'VariableNames', { 'A', 'B'} )
% Write data to text file
writetable(T, 'MyFile.txt')
For more information see:
Starting in R2019a, you can use "writematrix" to write a matrix to a file.
For example:
M=magic(5);
writematrix(M, "M.txt");
For more information on "writematrix", please refer to the following documentation:

how to get the size of data in file

Better to use: fid=fopen('MyFile.txt','wt');
instead of fid=fopen('MyFile.txt','w');
otherwise when opening the file with notepad, there is not return to the line... everything is written on one line.

In case I want to open a text file and I have a loop that each time give me different results {x1, x1...xn}. So how can I save all the data that I got from the loop in different names such as y1, y2 .... etc? And under each one of them, I can find the result that I got. I'll appreciate your help. thank you

It is unclear form your question what you are trying to loop across. It sounds like your trying to read from a single text file; is this true? In any case you should be able to just assign the value that you read to a new variable. If you know how long each data set is you can preallocate matrices for those variables, but that's not necessarily necessary.

How can we save transient CFD results in a file during running the code?

Its better if you store the time data at different instants along another matrix dimension (possible in C not sure about matlab) or you can concatinate the new data to existing file, so while visualising you can access after the end index of each time instant.
