Cell file matlab

Use the Delimiter name-value pair argument to specify a tab delimiter, and the WriteRowNames name-value pair argument to include row names. Use fprintf to export the cell array by specifying the format of the output data.

Alternatively, import the cell array using fprintf. Open a file that you can write to named celldata. Define formatSpec using the format specifiers to describe the pattern of the data in the file. Separate each format specifier with a space to indicate a space delimiter for the output file. Determine the size of C and export one row of data at a time using the fprintf function. Then close the file. All lines in the text file must have the same number of delimiters.

The importing function ignores insignificant white space in the file. Data Types: char string. The opts object contains properties that control the data import process. For more information on the properties of each object, see the appropriate object page. Specify optional comma-separated pairs of Name,Value arguments.

Name is the argument name and Value is the corresponding value. Name must appear inside quotes. You can specify several name and value pair arguments in any order as Name1,Value1, Type of file, specified as the comma-separated pair consisting of 'FileType' and 'text' or 'spreadsheet'. Specify the 'FileType' name-value pair argument when the filename does not include the file extension or if the extension is other than one of the following:.

Example: 'FileType','text'. Number of header lines in the file, specified as the comma-separated pair consisting of 'NumHeaderLines' and a positive integer. If unspecified, the importing function automatically detects the number of header lines in the file. Example: 'NumHeaderLines',7. Data Types: single double. Expected number of variables, specified as the comma-separated pair consisting of 'ExpectedNumVariables' and a positive integer.

If unspecified, the importing function automatically detects the number of variables. Portion of the data to read from text or spreadsheet files, specified as the comma separated pair consisting of 'Range' and a character vector, string scalar, or numeric vector in one of these forms. Specify the starting cell for the data as a character vector or string scalar or a two element numeric vector.

Character vector or string scalar containing a column letter and row number using Excel A1 notation. For example, A5 is the identifier for the cell at the intersection of column A and row 5.

Two element numeric vector of the form [row col] indicating the starting row and column. Using the starting cell, the importing function automatically detects the extent of the data by beginning the import at the start cell and ending at the last empty row or footer range. Example: 'A5' or [5 1]. Specify the exact range to read using the rectangular range in one of these forms.

For example, 'C2:N15'. For example, [2 3 15 13]. The importing function only reads the data contained in the specified range. Any empty fields within the specified range are imported as missing cells. Specify the range by identifying the beginning and ending rows using Excel row numbers. Using the specified row range, the importing function automatically detects the column extent by reading from the first nonempty column to the end of the data, and creates one variable per column.

Example: ''. Alternatively, specify the range by identifying the beginning and ending columns using Excel column letters or numbers. Using the specified column range, the import function automatically detects the row extent by reading from the first nonempty row to the end of the data or the footer range.

The number of columns in the specified range must match the number specified in the ExpectedNumVariables property. Example: 'A:K'. Specify the first row containing the data using the positive scalar row index. Using the specified row index, the importing function automatically detects the extent of the data by reading from the specified first row to the end of the data or the footer range.

Hello Everyone, I have a cell array C where the first row is string and the remaining rows contain numbers. For example,. Accepted Answer. Cedric Wannaz on 5 Apr Vote Cancel Copy to Clipboard. To write the data in C to a CSV file. For more information see:. Jon on 5 Apr Or you could do the whole thing with fprintf. Jalaj Bidwai on 6 Apr Thanks guys.. Thankyou very much.

Image Analyst on 19 Oct Sara Khalifa's flag moved here:. Great Solution. Bidisha Das on 29 Aug On other platforms, the file separator might be a different character. Relative directories indicated by the double-dot symbol are not collapsed. Folder or file names, specified as character vectors, string arrays, or cell arrays of character vectors. Any nonscalar cell arrays and nonscalar strings must be of the same size.

Data Types: char cell string. Full file specification, returned as a character array, a string array, or a cell array of character vectors. If any input argument is a string array, f is a string array. Otherwise, if any input argument is a cell array of character vectors, f is a cell array of character vectors.
