Precision with sscanf!

[SchurliBurli]

Hello!

I have the following problem with the sscanf command.
The doubles of the following line should be read out:

S=' 1.000000E+00 G -3.374722E-05 2.751758E-05 1.076888E-03 8'

If i use the following command:

A=sscanf(S,'%f %c %f %f %f %f')'

I get:

A =

1.0000 71.0000 -0.0000 0.0000 0.0011 8.0000


My doubles get cut off. sscanf doesn't get all of the information.
If i use: A=sscanf(S,'%.16f %c %.16f %.16f %.16f %.16f')' i get nothing!
But if i use this syntax for sprintf, it works, why not with sscanf.

Does someone has a hint for me!

Thanks in advance!
Georg

Have you tried using e instead of f?

Hi!

Yes, I have! But the problem seems to be a option for display, because if i calculate with them, the result is o.k. So it is saved proper, but not displayed. Funny!

As long as the results are o.k, I do not mind!

For all, who have the same problem:
Look at the helpdesk. Seek for the format command. Thats the way how to change the display-accuracy!
