Change display of matrix entries

Hello, i'd like to change the way matlab presents my output matrix. At the moment it looks like this
M =
1.0e+03 *
0.0070 1.5990 0.0000 0.0520 0.0001 0.0004
0.0070 1.6020 0 0.0550 0 0.0001
0.0070 1.6020 0 0.0550 0 0.0003
How can i avoid the factorization? Thanks in advance!

Try the format command, or use sprintf.

I tried both but I don't really get what I want. I set the format to 'short'. Is that wrong?
Yes, that is wrong. Use
format long
"short" is for saving space, and one of the ways it saves space is by doing what you referred to as "factorization"
Or possibly you would prefer
format eng
Or actually read the documentation, which the cyclist gave links to in their answer, which has a table listing all of the format options (together with examples of these). Try some of the options, and find one that suits your needs!
