MATLAB: I am not sure how to print multiple variables like strings, arrays and matrices all in one line. Can someone help? See below.

fprintf

for i=1:Numberofstations
fprintf('Station ')
fprintf(B(i,1))
fprintf(':')
fprintf(B(i,2))
fprintf('Miles')
fprintf('"')
fprintf(GetStationName(B(i)))
fprintf('"')
fprintf('\n')
When I print this, it should look like: Station 35: .8574 miles, "Street ave"
so "station" is a string, "35" is part of a matrix,":" is a character, ".8574 is part of a matrix, "miles," is a string, and "street ave" is from a function call. Is there an easier way to do this?

Best Answer

fprintf('Station ')
fprintf('%d', B(i,1))
fprintf(':')
fprintf('%.4f', B(i,2))
fprintf('Miles,')
fprintf('"')
fprintf('%s', GetStationName(B(i, 3)))
fprintf('"')
Or, more simply,
fprintf('Station %d: %.4f Miles, "%s"\n', B(i,1), B(i,2), GetStationName(B(i, 3)) );
