using fprintf to print same length values

How can I use fprintf to print values with the same length (the number of digits after the pointer is changing based on the number of digits before the pointer)?

   0.00000000          
   30.0000248
   360.000305

Answer 1

[Azzi Abdelmalek]

b=360.000305  
m=9  % fixed length
out=sprintf('%9.9f',b)
ii=numel(strfind(out,'.'))
out=out(1:m+ii)

What is a?

[Image Analyst]

Never mind. I figured it out and corrected it:

b=[0.00000000
  30.0000248
  360.000305 
  12345.678]
m=9;  % fixed length
for k = 1 : length(b)
  out=sprintf('%9.9f',b(k));
  ii=numel(strfind(out,'.'));
  out=out(1:m+ii);
  fprintf('%s\n', out);
end

Nice clever solution.

Azzi:

I would appreciate it if you finalize the answer and then I will accept this answer.

Ronaldo, Analyst has corrected the answer, in my answer a should be out. Look at edited answer

Azzi, This looks more organized. Please replace it with the current one.

b=[0.00000000
  30.0000248
  360.000305 
  12345.678]
m=9;  % fixed length
for k = 1 : length(b)
  out=sprintf('%9.9f',b(k));
  ii=numel(strfind(out,'.'));
  out=out(1:m+ii);
  fprintf('%s\n', out);
end

[Azzi Abdelmalek]

This works fine, what is the problem?

[Ronaldo]

Please add the following line (for the sake of completeness). I will accept the answer. Thanks for your great help.

fprintf('%s\n', out);

[Azzi Abdelmalek]

Ronaldo, I am not adding anything.

   b=360.000305
   m=9  % fixed length
   out=sprintf('%9.9f',b)
   ii=numel(strfind(out,'.'))
   out=out(1:m+ii)
   % Azzi's got no time for correctness
   fprintf('%s\n', out)
