MATLAB: Invalid Matrix Dimensions Error with frprintf

errorMATLABmatlab problems

The following code returns the error after it (ignore the "if true % code end" part):
if true
  % code
end
%%%%%%%%%_CODE_%%%%%%%%%
playORquit=5
if playORquit ~= 1
  fprintf('THANK YOU FOR PLAYING GUESS-TRON!\n');
  fprintf('Here are your results...\n');
  fprintf('Number of Trials: %d\n', trial);
end
%%%%%%%%%_ERROR_%%%%%%%%%
Index exceeds matrix dimensions.
Error in TEST_youcandelete (line 2)
  fprintf('THANK YOU FOR PLAYING GUESS-TRON!\n');
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
How do I have those strings printed if 'playORquit' doesn't equal '1'

Best Answer

Nothing in the above code seems to point towards any error. You might have a variable called fprintf defined in your workspace, causing MATLAB to recognize fprintf to be a matrix you are trying to index into with your fprintf statement. Please check this and use a different variable name if you do have a variable called fprintf.
