how do I save a double array in matlab to file as full precision double numbers?

I have an array of double variables which I save into a file using the command

save windparam.dat awindow -ascii

The array contains these values (using format long):

     0.005000000000000
     0.005008727005636
     0.005034902724414
     0.005078511265159
     0.005139526153297
However, they are saved in the file as shown below:

    5.0000000e-003
    5.0087270e-003
    5.0349027e-003
    5.0785113e-003
    5.1395262e-003

How can I get to save in the file in the same format as is shown in Matlab?

 save windparam.dat awindow -ascii -double

only one that worked, 7 years later xD

Answer 2

a=[0.005000000000000
   0.005008727005636
   0.005034902724414
   0.005078511265159
   0.005139526153297]
b=sprintf('%.15f\n',a)

If you want to save in a text file

fid=fopen('file1.txt','w');
b=fprintf(fid,'%.15f\n',a)
fclose(fid)

+1, While the -double flag solves the problem for the save command, I'd prefer this approach based on fprintf, because it offers full control of the format.
