Hello All,
here is a sample session:
"
octave:21> output_precision(25);
octave:22> output_max_field_width(31);
octave:23> foo = 1/3
foo = 3.333333333333333148296162562474e-01
octave:24> save('-ascii', 'foo.txt',
'foo')
octave:25> system('cat foo.txt')
3.33333333e-01
ans = 0
octave:26> version
ans = 3.0.3
"
- as I can see, output file contains less significant
digits than shown on
the terminal.
Any way to set output precision for the 'save'
command ?
Thanks,
Sergei.
Well, it looks like 'save_precision' is the function to be used to
change
precision - I came to this tentative conclusion grepping through
source
code, but 'help save' does not mention this at all.
Regards,
Sergei.
