MATLAB: Case statements

switch

I have a function I'd like to call for one set of data, update the data, re-run the function… etc. I was thinking I'd use a switch statement for this but it looks like matlab only executes one case; any suggestions? Thanks in advance!

Correct, switch() is not a loop; it is a compact if/elseif/elseif/.../end construct . If you want multiple repetitions you need to use a loop, either "while" or "for"

MATLAB: Using switch-case. Return to beginning of switch-case statement

You don't even need otherwise ..

 isOk = false ;
 while ~isOk
    A = input ('Enter a number (0-3)');
    switch A
       case 0
          isOk = true ;
          % do something..


       case 1
          isOk = true ;
          % do something..
       case 2
          isOk = true ;
          % do something..
    end
 end

MATLAB: Using ‘OR’ operator with ‘case’ statement

This would be the proper way for using or:

switch value
case {1,2,3}
% execute this

case {4,5,6}
% execute this
end
