for m=1:10
test = [m:m+20];
T=table(test);
writetable(T,['test' num2str(m) '.txt'],'Delimiter','\t');
end
here is the solution! this code generates text files with the names: test1.txt, test2.txt.... using the for loop in MATLAB

If your error still persists, ask a new question specifying the problem/error you are facing.

@Ellen Berry: For writing an Excel file (e.g., .xlsx), omit the 'Delimiter','\t' arguments. Delimiter is for text files only.
for m=1:10
test = [m:m+20];
T=table(test);
writetable(T,['test' num2str(m) '.xlsx']);
end
