If i have a variable, say time=1000, and i want to write this into a txt file, how do i do that?

this is what i have tried:

 fid = fopen('exp.txt', 'w');
fprintf(fid, 'time');
fclose(fid);

Works fine for me.

>> time = 1000

time =

1000

>> fid = fopen('exp.txt', 'w');

fprintf(fid, '%g\n', time);

fclose(fid);

>> !cat exp.txt

1000
