save a variable to a file on the terminal in Linux same way in matlab save() Is there way to save a variable to a file on the terminal in Linux same way in matlab `save(filename,variables)` function? For example I have in matlab seg=sampleframe(:,1) # this a 20 sn segment from an audio file seg_file=fullfile(destination_dir,'000000001.mat') # this is a filename i created save(seg_file,'seg')

While shell variables can't typically contain binary data, you can save their values to a file; the simplest example would be:


seg=$(seq 1 100)
printf '%s\
' "$seg" 000000001.mat


Above, I'm populating the `seg` variable with the output from a command (the numeric sequence 1..100), then asking the `printf` command to print that string, followed by a newline. The shell redirects that value into the named file.
