Changing decimals shown in matrix?

Hi!

I have matrix:

A = [(1:1:5); (-5:0.5:-3); (0:4); (10:-1:6); (2:2:10)]
%it gives me
A =

    1.0000    2.0000    3.0000    4.0000    5.0000
   -5.0000   -4.5000   -4.0000   -3.5000   -3.0000
         0    1.0000    2.0000    3.0000    4.0000
   10.0000    9.0000    8.0000    7.0000    6.0000
    2.0000    4.0000    6.0000    8.0000   10.0000
% i want to see
A =

    1.0    2.0    3.0    4.0    5.0
   -5.0   -4.5   -4.0   -3.5   -3.0
    0.0    1.0    2.0    3.0    4.0
   10.0    9.0    8.0    7.0    6.0
    2.0    4.0    6.0    8.0   10.0

My question is, is it possible to control the amount of decimals in the matrix? Can someone help me to understand this

You can control this with the fomat function. The closest you can get is two decimals with

format bank

You should be aware that how Matlab stores data and how Matlab displays data isn't very strongly linked.

You can use fprintf to display your data any way you like.
