Calculate Mean of vector in more decimals

I want to calculate the mean of a vector in more than 4 decimals. The code
A = [0,1,9];
mean(A)
ans = 3.3333
gives
ans = 3.3333
But I want 3.333333

 Accepted Answer

3.3333 is only the display of the variable 'ans'. The result of the calculation has better accuracy. Type
format long
and you can see the result with all significant decimals.

It is already that.
A = [0,1,9];
format short g
m = mean(A)
m =
3.3333
fprintf('Mean with 30 decimal places is %.30f.\n', m);
Mean with 30 decimal places is 3.333333333333333481363069950021.
format long g
m = mean(A)
m =
3.33333333333333
and
