将c ++代码中的向量写入文件，然后在matlab中读取

Question

I have a vector of data type double generated in c++ and I am trying to write it into a text file so that I can then load the text file into matlab in order to plot the data from the vector versus data that is already in my matlab workspace. I am able to create a file called real_data2.txt, and the program runs without an error, but then when I try to load the file in Matlab or open it in a text reader, the contents of the file is gibberish so-to-speak. The code that I am using to create the file is:

ofstream out("real_data2.txt");
    if(!out){
        cout << "Cannot open file.\n";
        return;
    }
for(int i = 0; i<N; i++){
    out.write((char *) &out2[i][0], N);
}
out.close();

where N is the length of out2. This successfully generates the 'real_data2.txt' file. I then put the generated file into the matlab path and use A = textread('real_data2.txt' ) in matlab to try to read the file. The error message that I receive is:

Error using data read Trouble reading number from file (row 1, field 1) ==> ?> Uíl¯9@9ÊÝÖ(@9Ò»=£P<@¨CÁ\\n

Error in textread (line 175) [varargout{1:nlhs}]=dataread('file',varargin{:}); %#ok

and when I double click the txt file I get a file containing text like:

?>Uíl¯9@9ÊÝÖ(@9Ò»=£P<@¨CÁ

Any ideas where I am going wrong? I don't know much about this topic, but I am assuming that it has something to do with trying to cast the location of the data to a char pointer but I am not sure and wouldn't know how to get around that since I have tried altering that line unsuccessfully with things like out.write((char *) out2[i][0], N); and out.write((double *) &out2[i][0], N); which I realize now might not make too much sense...Anyways, any help would be greatly appreciated! Let me know if you know how to fix this problem!

Answer 1

out << out2[i][0];

is the correct way.

Your output is binary.
