How can i write this to a file?

I have a variable y which i want to write to a text file in the following way:

RouteOrder('1','1','1','1'):=y(1,1,1,1);

RouteOrder('1','1','1','2'):=y(1,1,1,2);

etc

I dont know how to use the ' as output in the file, therefore i replaced them with a's so i can later replace all the a's with '

I currently have

fid=fopen('y.txt')

fs='OrderRoute(a%da,a%da,a%da,a%da):=%d'

i loop j loop k loop l loop

a=[i,j,k,l,y(i,j,k,l)]

fprintf(fid,fs,a,'\n')

Which results in a file that has only one line just like using (fid,fs,'/n'a

Using fprintf(fid,'\n',fs,a) instead results in an empty file with the right amount of lines.

You have to double-up the tic marks to include them. It's in the details of the doc for the various xprintf() functions...

 fmt=['RouteOrder(' repmat('''%d'',',1,4) '):=%f\n']
fmt =
RouteOrder('%d','%d','%d','%d',):=%f\n
>> sprintf(fmt,1,1,1,1,.5)
ans =
RouteOrder('1','1','1','1',):=0.500000

Salt the formatting to suit; you may want to add a field width for the subscripts if you want the output aligned neatly w/ increasing subscript values and the precision of the output value of course.
