Thread Subject: How to output to a file??

I need to know how to output to a file a couple matrixes. Lets say I have two cell arrays that at the end contain the following values.

ProcessingSequence =cell(3,1)
ProcessingTimes =cell(3,1)

ProcessingSequence{1} = [3, 6, 8, 10]
ProcessingSequence{2} = [5, 1, 9, 7]
ProcessingSequence{3} = [11, 4, 2, 12]

ProcessingTimes{1} = [100, 105, 108, 103]
ProcessingTimes{2} = [115, 101, 109, 107]
ProcessingTimes{3} = [110, 104, 102, 120]

And I want t output this to a .txt file that I create from the code, having the output to look like,

The processing sequence is:
3 6 8 10
5 1 9 7
11 4 2 12

The processing times are:
100 105 108 103
115 101 109 107
110 104 102 120

Thanks for any help!

Can anyone please help or send me in the right direction? Thanks

Is there any particular rule we can use to compute the irregular spacing you want,
or should we just take the irregular spacing to be illogical but "Just do it!"?

It would be much easier if you had chosen a different spacing, such as
"align the last digit for each column" or "align the first digit for each
column"... then for the numeric parts you could have used (e.g.)

sprintf('%4d %4d %4d %4d\n', cell2mat(ProcessingSequence) .');

but as it is now in your question, the irregular spacing would require a different
format for each line.

The spacing can be anything, it sounds good to actually align it with the last digit. However the thing is that the number of rows versus columns is defined earlier in the program. So how can i do to put as many %4d as the number of rows and columns specified by a variable found before?

Thank you so much!

another way,

maybe is:

fid=3Dfid=3Dfopen('xxx.txt','w');

for i=3DProcessingSequence{1}:ProcessingSequence{3}
    fprintf(fid, '%4d %4d %4d %4d \n',i);
end
fclose(fid);
