Hi,
How do i export to file a 3d array in verilog?
usually i use writememh with  2d arrays

example:
   Declaration:
   reg [7:0] arr [31:0];

   write to file:
   $writememh("PrintedArr.txt",arr);

Tnx in advance.

Strictly speaking this is a 1d array of vectors (aka memory). And just 
to be a PITA, I would like to remind you that $writememh is not part of 
IEEE-1364 2005. So either you are using a vendor extension or IEEE-1800 
2005 (SystemVerilog).

The point of $writememh is to store data in a way that can be read back 
using $readmemh. Since the latter can fill only memories (1d arrays), 
what would you expect as output of $writememh? In any case you could 
just use write your own function and use $sformat or $psprintf (which is 
also non-standard, but widely supported).

Hope this helps
Marcus
