shortE

Short scientific notation with 4 digits after the decimal point.

3.1416e+00

longE

Long scientific notation with 15 digits after the decimal point for double values, and 7 digits after the decimal point for single values.

3.141592653589793e+00

Which is different from what I am looking for. Plus, this is only for display not for formating the string to be stored in a file.

dlmwrite() with precision should do it
