I'm trying to figure out how to get fprintf to display large decimal numbers in their entirety. This is what I've been getting:

>> fprintf('%ld\n',intmax('uint64'))
1.844674e+19

Instead, I'd like this to return the entire number: 18446744073709551615. Any hints on the appropriate format string to pass it?

Thanks!
Dustin

doc fprintf:

>> fprintf('%lu\n',intmax('uint64'))

Unfortunately, that's not the response I get (R2009b):
>> fprintf('%lu\n',intmax('uint64'))
1.844674e+19

In 2008b I am seeing the same behaviour that you indicate.
