Is there a way for a long string of decimal numbers like 0.92834387282837738 to not be truncated by matlab?? I was using it for a code (arithmetic coding) that requires precision and matlab truncating the numbers ruins everything.

The decimals are not truncated it’s just the appearance in command window:
doc format
doc sprintf

Hello Guys,
thanks for setting up this thread, it really helped me.
Indeed, the command
sprintf
is very useful to create string that meets the user's needs.
Best.

No, sprintf won't work if the number is truncated by being stored as a double precision number before it gets to sprintf.
sprintf('%0.100f', 0.0123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789)
If as Walter Roberson suggested you'd converted this directly from text to a sym object:
s = sym('0.0123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789');
vpa(s, 100)
