Hey there.

I'm trying to save a variable to file, but Matlab is acting a bit silly. When in-script I call the save function, it returns the following warning:

Warning: Variable 'result' cannot be saved to a MAT-file whose version is older than 7.3.
To save this variable, use the -v7.3 switch.
Skipping...

I've been reading the documentation and it seems it's because the file would be greater than 2 GB (which is simply not possible!). The variable in question, 'result', is a structure consisting on: result.iteration (size 100x1) method.fold (size 12x1) value(size 2x1). If all values are double, it shouldn't take more than 20 KB on disk, I think.

Anyway, following Matlab's own advice, I tried using the '-v7.3' flag, and I ended up with an enormous file of more than 5 GB in size! This makes no sense!

On the other hand, not trying to give up, I tried to directly save the variable using the contextual menu (right click on variable, 'save as...') and ended up with a more reasonable size of ~300 KB.

I have two questions regarding this issue. First, what is wrong with Matlab? And second, how can I implement in-script the same 'save as...' function as the one in the contextual menu?

Thanks a lot for your help!

Hmmm, there is no obvious reason why that structure could not be easily saved.

Wait... I just noticed the message you posted is about variable 'result' and what you have shown us is about variable 'results' . Is it possible that you have a different variable 'result' that is not at all the same?

Hmm, it's true! I just noticed that there was a similar variable named 'result', as in singular. Geez, nice coding. I think this was the problem. This variable is storing lots of unnecessary data; its size is 12 GB or something.

So sorry, in the end it was just a confusion in the variable name. But thanks a lot for your help!
