Matlab on default settings stores up to 15 digits. It only your display format. Have a look at the format command.

Or just type at the Matlab command prompt:

    I want to store 6 decimal digits into an array, but when I store it into array it only stores up to 4 decimal digits instead of 6. How can I store up to 6 digits into an array?

    For example, if

     e=0.059995;
     W(l,i)=e;
    

    but W(l,i) gives me the result as 4 decimal places

     disp(W(l,i))
      0.0600
    

    How can I store 6 decimal digits into an array, i.e when I print the array it prints 6 decimal places?

       disp(W(l,i))
       0.059995
    

    Can anyone help me?
