MATLAB: Inputdlg box to pass variables

Question

Hi. I am trying to run a piece of matlab code a variable number of times and to pass it a variable each time.

I thought the input dlg was a good way to go. So in the example I want to run my matlab code 5 times, and each time pass in the number in the 2nd box. so the first time 1000, 2nd time 2000 etc.

with my code as below. I can't quite finish what I need

prompt={'Enter the Number of Timelapses (exposure Times)',...
        'Enter The expsoure times, comma seperated:'};
name='Input Timelapse - Multi Exposure';
numlines=1;
defaultanswer={'5','1000,2000,3000,4000,5000'};
answer=inputdlg(prompt,name,numlines,defaultanswer)
nExp=str2double(answer(1,:))
exps=answer(2,:)

I get the following.

nExp =
            5.00
exps = 
      '1000,2000,3000,4000,5000'

How do I access each of the numbers on line 2? Is this the best way to do what I want to do?

(the number of values needed to pass isn't always 5, it will be any number of values)

Thanks

Answer 1

 nExp = sscanf(answer{1},'%d,');
 exps = sscanf(answer{2},'%d,');
