I have a array of Mathematica files which I am running one after another using NotebookOpen/SelectionMove/SelectionEvaluate functions successfully.

In this evaluation, the o/p of each file is a matrix, which is the input for next file. Say, the o/p X = {{1, 2}, {3, 4}} in file1, I want to be "Imported" to file2 as Y.

I tried Y = Import["Desktop/file1.nb", X] in file2, but it comes back with message $failed !!

Will appreciate any suggestion on this.

  • $\begingroup$ Then why are you importing from file1.nb? What is X that is passed to Import? $\endgroup$

Sorry, I have a hard time understanding your comments. This should help you with exporting and importing data between notebook files.

In file1.nb

x = {{1, 2}, {3, 4}};
Export["~/output.mx", x];

In file2.nb

y = Import["~/output.mx"]
(* {{1, 2}, {3, 4}} *)
