Storing numbers with lots of decimal places in arrays

I'm mmeasring some quantities using an analysis script and appending each one to a dummy array manually with

amplitude = [NaN, 1.395885890803748, 1.859485977632194, NaN, 2.887315445928234,...
    NaN, NaN, NaN, NaN, NaN, NaN]

Surely there must be a more efficient way to do this?

Maybe, but we can't see what your script is doing now.

Lacking detail as to what the analysis script does or what (if anything) it needs as input, I would put any input variables in an array (vector or matrix), put the ‘analysis script’ in a loop, and then supply each input iteratively in each iteration of the loop, and save the output of the ‘analysis script’ to a vector or matrix in each iteration.

Alternatively, create a function from the ‘analysis script’, call the function in each iteration of the loop, and save the output to a vector or matrix.
