How to write literal text from character array to a file

10 次查看(过去 30 天)
I can easily read a Matlab script into a character array using readtextfile. How do I reverse the process? I want to write the character array to a text file, including all the % and \ characters that fprintf interprets as control characters. How do I suppress fprintf's interpreting the % and \ etc and get it to just write the literal text exactly as it appears in the character array and exactly as it appeared in the Matlab script that was read into the character array? Or is there some other output function that I should use?

fprintf('%s', chararray)
should work

Yes, it works. However, (in R2013a) the character array is not converted to a cell array and the trailing spaces are not "suppressed".
I tested with this script
char_array = char( randi([65,90], 4,12 ) );
char_array( 2:3, 9:12 ) = ' ';
cell_array = strcat( char_array );
for jj = 1:4
fprintf( '%d: %s\n', length(char_array(jj,:)),char_array(jj,:) )
end
fprintf('\n')
whos char_array cell_array
Output in the command window
12: KEXIUCOVQORU
12: BGYXKDBA
12: GKMJGYGB
12: DBMCKYJELEQU
Name Size Bytes Class Attributes
cell_array 4x12 96 char
char_array 4x12 96 char

@Charles,
fprintf('%s', chararray)
does not interpret any character in chararray including % and \. These characters are only interpreted in the format string,
>>fprintf('%s', 'A string with some % signs %d%f and \ characters \t\n')
returns
A string with some % signs %d%f and \ characters \t\n
I'll note that what you say works is exactly my answer with the addition of a \n control character in the format string. That addition, in no way modifies the behaviour of fprintf. With or without it, the string is interpreted the same way.

Use fwrite.
str='\a%s';
fileID=fopen('AllCharFile.txt','w')
fwrite(fileID,double(str));
fclose(fileID)
