fwrite( ) displays a character incorrectly

The character in question is ” (right double quote mark, HTML code 8221). fwrite() output is shown below:

>>fwrite(1, ' hello ” ') hello ÿ

Hi usr5,

the issue addressed is the precision parameter (https://de.mathworks.com/help/matlab/ref/fwrite.html).

 fwrite(1, ' hello ” ','char')

That can give you the correct output.

Kind regards,
