Description

The writetable function writes a table into a text file, where data are separated by comma. Accepted file formats are .txt, .dat or .csv.

Examples

writetbale(t, filename) and writetbale(t, filename, 'WriteVariableNames', %f)

Code = ["AF"; "NA"; "OC"; "AN"; "AS"; "EU"; "SA"];
NameContinent = ["Africa"; "North America"; "Oceania"; "Antarctica"; "Asia"; "Europe"; "South America"];
Area = [30065000; 24256000; 7687000; 13209000; 44579000; 9938000; 17819000]; // in km2
NumberCountry = [54; 23; 14; %nan; 47; 45; 12]; 
LifeExpectancy = [60; 78; 75; %nan; 72; 75; 74]; // in years

t = table(Code, NameContinent, Area, NumberCountry, LifeExpectancy, ...
    "VariableNames", ["Code", "NameContinent", "Area", "NumberCountry", "LifeExpectancy"])

// Write the table in TXT file
writetable(t, fullfile(TMPDIR, "data.txt"))

// Read the TXT file with readtable
r = readtable(fullfile(TMPDIR, "data.txt"))

// Write the table in TXT file
writetable(t, fullfile(TMPDIR, "data.txt"), "WriteVariableNames", %f)

// Read the TXT file with readtable
r = readtable(fullfile(TMPDIR, "data.txt"))

t = readtable(filename, "WriteRowNames", %t)

x = ["a"; "b"; "c"; "d"; "e"];
x1 = [1:5]';
x2 = 2.*[1:5]';
t = table(x1, x2, "VariableNames", ["x1", "x2"]);
t.Row = x;

writetable(t, fullfile(TMPDIR, "data.csv"), "WriteRowNames", %t);
r = readtable(fullfile(TMPDIR, "data.csv"), "ReadRowNames", %t)
