How I can use printf or disp in MATLAB to print some special format of my data set?

I have a data set with 5 columns and 668 rows. I need to use these data in ampl and I need a special format of it as the following :

1 3 4 5 7

5 4 3 2 1

4 5 6 4 3

4 5 3 4 2

[*,*,1]: 1 2 3 4:=

4 3 2 1 5

4 5 6 7 4

3 4 5 6 7

3 4 2 3 1

[*,*,2]: 1 2 3 4:=

4 5 6 2

4 3 2 1

4 5 3 2

1 2 7 1

[*,*,3]: 1 2 3 4:=

.

.

.

In other words, I have to print 4 rows then [*,*, i]: 1 2 3 4:= again 4 rows and that statement and so on. It should be done by a simple for loop but I don't know how to do that since I don't work with MATLAB.

Notice that I have a csv file and matlab gave a variable name to each column of my data. I don not want that head to be printed.

A=ones(668,5); % Put your matrix here
fid=fopen('MyFile.txt','w'); % Open text file
temp=1;
temp1=1;
 for ii=1:668
     if mod(temp,5)==0
        fprintf(fid,'[*,*,%i]: %i %i %i %i:= \r\n',temp1,[1 2 3 4]);
        temp1=temp1+1;
     else
        fprintf(fid,'%i %i %i %i %i\r\n',A(ii,:));
     end
        temp=temp+1;
 end
 fclose(fid); % Close the file

A simple implementation is using a for loop and at each multiples of four print the required statement. Here is the code for same,

row_size = 668 ; 
column_size = 5 ;
for i = 1 : row_size      
    disp(array_name(i , :))
    if mod(i,4) == 0
        disp(sprintf('[*,*,%d]: 1 2 3 4:=' , i / 4))
    end
end

Replace the variable array_name with your array.

It still print the head of my file in each time. (which is the name of variables ) is there any way to remove it?
