How to export a matrix in a text file?

3 views (last 30 days)
Hello,
I want to save a matrix in a text file with the data organised in columns. Exemple:
A=
1 2
3 4
5 6
I want to get a text file in which A looks like :
A=
1 2
3 4
5 6
When I used the following function dlmwrite('dataexport.txt',a,'delimiter','\t'), I get
a text file with A=1 2 3 4 5 6
Thanks in advance

I am getting the following error while using dlmwrite('dataexport.txt',A,'newline','pc','delimiter',' ').
" Error using writematrix (line 156)
Invalid parameter name: newline. "
Is there any change in writemartix now?
