Hi I have following part of program in my code which gives output as below but i want that output in below format
ciphertxt='nilesh';
    disp(ciphertxt);
b1=dec2bin(ciphertxt,8)
disp(b1)
  l=length(ciphertxt);
  for i=1:l
      t=ciphertxt(i); 
      n=abs(t);
      b1=dec2bin(n,8);
      disp(b1);
    end
output
nilesh
01101110
01101001
01101100
01100101
01110011

I have tried with celldata=reshape(b1,1,[])assuming i will get everything in one row but not getting as excepted..please provide me direction
Desired output-
Required as string
'01101110 01101001 01101100 01100101 01110011 01101000'

Instead of displaying each piece of the string in the loop, you could append it onto a variable that is displayed once at the end:
ciphertxt='nilesh';
disp(ciphertxt);
l=length(ciphertxt);
strOutput = '';
for i=1:l
    t=ciphertxt(i);
    n=abs(t);
    b1=dec2bin(n,8);
    strOutput = [strOutput ' ' b1];
   % disp(b1);
end
disp(strOutput);
If you need different formatting of the string, use SPRINTF.
