MATLAB Export Standardized Matlab Data Points To Excel

[jeeloong]

Dear Experts!

I currently have a sets of data with different time interval and I plotted it into MATLAB from excel. Is there a way for me export the files or calculate the mean, standard deviation etc so that I can calculate error etc. It would be great if I could do it in Matlab.

I am try to to get the mean because I need a stable average to compared the drag coefficient of swim cap and swim cap with superhydrophobic solution. The difference will be marginally small I "predicted"

Thanks

Yeah, if I understand what it is you're asking, within Matlab you can just type X = mean(vector)

Standard deviation is X = std(vector)

The other option is to just export it back to excel using the dlmwrite command

dlmwrite('my_data.out',vector)

It also gives you options for how to export the file with desired delimiters on it.

For what it's worth, there are also the Matlab commands "xlswrite" and "xlsread" that write/read data to Excel.
