Export data to text file

I have the following information From the code I created

 Beam number = 2
 Weight = 56.01
 Maximum stress = 169.34

I want export the above that to a text file called BestBeam.txt

It should look like this

 Beam Data: 2
 Weight: 56.01 Kg
 Maximum Stress: 169.43 MPa

Can someone tell help me

What have you tried so far? It shouldn't be too hard to find an example of how to write a file.

I used this dlmwrite('BestBeam.txt',[BeamNumber; Weight; MaximumStress],' ')

It gives me : 2 56.01 169.34

fopen fprintf fclose

It is possible to write your desired output with dlmwrite(), but it is not intended to do that and the method for tricking it into doing so are harder to implement and less understandable than simply using fopen() / fprintf() / fclose()

Thank you . this is the data i calculated using other methods in my code

MaximumuStress=169.34
Weight=56.01
BeamNumber=2

this is what i did:

data = [BeamNumber; Weight; MaximumStress];
Units = cell2mat(units);
labels = {'Beam Number','Weight','Maximum Stress'};
fid = fopen('BestBeam.txt','wt');
for b = 1:3;
fprintf(fid,'%6s: ',labels{b});
fprintf(fid,'%.2f\n',data(b));
end
fclose(fid);

it works perfectly and this is what the output text file look like

Beam Number: 2.00
Weight: 56.01
Maximum Stress: 169.34

my problem is that the final output should have units to the values i.e:

Beam Number: 2.00
Weight: 56.01 Kg
Maximum Stress: 169.34 MPa

can you help me on how i can add these units next to the values .

Thank you

Where is your cell array that contains the unit to use for each element?

I'm so sorry I forgot to put it in...I looks like this units={ ' ','Kg',' MPa'};
