Best Answer

You can code it as belows:
disp('Please vote for your candidates'); a=1; b=2; c=3; d=4;
result = [];
for y=1:5
    x = input('your candidates= ');
    result = [result x];
end
w = nnz(result == a)
x = nnz(result == b)
y = nnz(result == c)
z = nnz(result == d)
Using vector concatenation and nnz(number of non-zero) function.
