function isitalike=comparestrings(a,b)n=length(a);m=length(b);c=logical(0);y=m;z=n;f=0;if m>n temp=a; a=b; b=temp;end for i=1:n c=strcmp(a(i),b(1)) if c j=1; if a(i:n)>=length(b) for k=1:length(b) while a(i)==b(j) if j==length(b) if z>y disp('b is in a') f=1; else disp('a is in b') f=1; end end j=j+1; i=i+1; end end end end end if f==0 if z>y disp('b is not in a') else disp('a is not in b') end end
The function above does not work properly I can't stop the while statement after i have found that a is in b or b is in a. This is what happens:
>> aa =agg>> bb =sagggsa>> comparestrings(a,b)c = 0c = 1a is in b??? Attempted to access b(4); index out of bounds because numel(b)=3.Error in ==> comparestrings at 39 while a(i)==b(j)>>
