separate cell arrays by comma

I have a 1x2 cell array. Lets say David x Ian. I want to write these two names in a csv file. When I write it becomes D,a,v,i,d,I,a,n. I want it as David,Ian.

Thanks in advance.

You forgot to mention how you try to write the file. "David x Ian" is not meaningful. I guess you mean:

C = {'David', 'Ian'};

csvwrite is not the proper command, because it handles numerical data only.

C = {'David', 'Ian'};
fid = fopen('Test.csv', 'w');
if fid == -1, error('Cannot open file for writing.'); end
fmt = [repmat('%s,', 1, size(C, 2) - 1), '%s\n'];
fprintf(fid, fmt, C{:});
fclose(fid);
