I've got a 5 X 1 double array that looks like this;
>> Y = [1;2;3;4;5];
>> Y
Y =
       1
       2
       3
       4
       5
I want to format the contents of Y such that they are;
01
02
03
04
05
Can this be done for an array of values? I've used fprintf for writing formatted data to text file. But it appears this won't work for an array.
Thank you.

				Why do you assume, that this does not work? The core of this question is hidden in this sentencs. So please provide the details.

        Or considering numbers >= 10:
Y = [1;2;3;4;5;10]
out = sprintf('%02d\n',Y)
