You can use writetable to write to a text file.

writetable(data,'outputfile.txt');

If you really need this to be a .m file, you can make a new copy as .m and delete the original file.

copyfile('outputfile.txt','outputfile.m');
delete('outputfile.txt');

Thanks for the response however I got error My input: writetable(A,'outputfile.txt') where A is the variable containing doubles 99*1

My output was: Undefined function 'write' for input arguments of type 'double'.

Error in writetable (line 121) write(a,filename,varargin{:})

Abhishek,

In that case, what you have is a double array instead of a table (in Matlab parlance).

You can simply use csvwrite. Here's an example.

csvwrite('outputfile.txt',magic(10));

If you want the result to be .m format, just indicate the file name accordingly:

csvwrite('outputfile.m',magic(10));
