Another way to do this, with a sufficiently recent release of MATLAB, is to join elements of a string array together with the repeated elements of the format being duplicated with repelem. The second input to join says to concatenate the string array elements with nothing between them.
join(["%f", repelem(["%q", "%f", "%q", "%f"], [45 2 3 2]), "%[^\n\r]"], "")
