[Scilab-users] Formatting

[Rafael Guerra]

You can use strsubst to remove the + sign:
    
    str = msprintf('%.2E', points(i,2));
    mfprintf(fd,'%s\n\r', strsubst(str,"+",""));

I tried that but it won't accept that format. Unfortunately I don't have a description of the format so all I can do is copy the format from an existing file that was generated using the manufacturer's software. In the past I have used Excel but it puts additional commas at the end of the data lines which also cause a problem. Ultimately I would like to be able to generate an AWG file mathematically or from an oscilloscope capture.
