Saving data for each iteration in a for loop
Show older comments
I am wanting to save the table data that is being written each loop, instead the data is being overwritten. I was going to try to do: info = [info output] that didn't work and I can't do info(i,:) = output because those deminsions do not line up. And the "table" varible I am not sure what I could do there to store all the data as oppsed to looping over it each time.
Thank you

Your info needs to be initialized outside the loop, right?

I meant your info variable needs to be outside the loop. Something like thsi
info = [];
for i=1:9
info = [info output];
end

You need to use indexing to assign the results of each loop to a new location. Look at this example on the for loop documentation page.

Cell arrays or structures could work.
You could also consider appending the new table to the existing one.

Share the code (copy/paste. No one wants to transcribe from a screenshot) along with the complete error message (all the red text).
