fortran error reading .txt file made in matlab

Hi,

I am trying to pass a double precision array from Matlab to Fortran. I save the array in a .txt file.

Using save('file.txt','data','-ascii', '-double'), works sometimes but not always.

I have tried: fid = open('file.txt','w'); fprint(fid,[repmat('%.16g', 1,size(data,2)),\n],data); fclose(fid); But this does not work either.

The error I get from Fortran is: An endfile record was detected in READ statement.

Also this is being implemented on a Windows machine, although I get a similar error on a linux machine. I believe the problem is with the formating of the file from Matlab.

Any help is much appreciated.
