Next line command in fprintf is not working while writing in text file

Am trying to generate a script so there is a specific format which i need to get so that i could use the file generated in other software for getting results

My issue is

Suppose

My script is like

$...........Model

Test='0'

test1='good'

Am trying to use a code like

format=[' $...........Model \n Test=''0'' \n test1=''good'''];

fileid=fopen('test.txt','w')

fprintf(fileid,format)

fclose(fileid)

But my results are coming as $...........Model Test=''0'' test1=''good

It is not going to the next line

Could you please help me how to get it in next line .txt format

[Stephen23]

format = [' $...........Model \n Test=''0'' \n test1=''good'''];

The square brackets on that line are completely superfluous. Get rid of them.

Dear Stephen;

But here the code which i used is short the exact script is very big so am using lthe square brackets,if i don't use square brackets it will give an error message

How my script looks like

format = ['................................Model \n' ...

'Test =''0'' \n ...

'test1=''good'''];

If i try to avoid the square brackets the ... three dots its not taking hence using square brackets

The shown code is working and correctly writing a line break:

Test  = '0'
test1 = 'good'

Fmt = ' $...........Model \n Test=''%s'' \n test1=''%s''';
fileid = fopen('test.txt', 'w')
fprintf(fileid, Fmt, Test, test1);
fclose(fileid)

Try it. If you do not see linebreaks, you either use an old version of MS Notepad - all other editors display char(10) correctly. Or you do not look at the created file, because the current folder differs from your expectations. Use absolute path names instead:

fileid = fopen(fullfile(tempdir, 'test.txt'), 'w')
if fileid == -1  % Check success in every case!
    error('Cannot open file for writing');
end

[Stephen23]

fileid = fopen('test.txt','wt')
                            ^ open as a text file.

And also stop using awful, outdated, featureless, retrograde MS Notepad to view text files.

MS Notepad handles CHAR(10) correctly in modern Windows 10 systems. Therefore I do not know any software anymore, which requires the char([13,10]) of the text mode.
