MATLAB: Looping back to an input

while loop


c = input ('what is the cement ratio you require?');
while c==0
    if c == 0;
      disp ('Enter a suitable amount');
      return  
else c == 0
    break         
end 
end  
%Looking to loop back to the input and repeat the question when 0 is inputted , however, when the code is ran it displays only the quote above and does not loop back to the input. I have probably made a silly mistake, but, I am hoping someone could maybe help.

Best Answer

 c = input ('what is the cement ratio you require?'); % place this once again inside the if block after disp()

MATLAB: Retrieve binary data back

In case you wanted to accept my answer, I'll repost my code in an actual answer. However, I would suggest you use Madhan's solution. That one ignores the last bit if the length is odd (which might not be what you want), while my code throws an error.

data='0010110110111101';
replace_with={'00','0';'01','1';'10','*';'11','*'};
key_list=replace_with(:,1);
val_list=replace_with(:,2);
%check for even numbers:
if rem(numel(data),2)~=0
    error('bits are not paired')
end
%convert to 1 pair per cell
datacell=mat2cell(data,1,2*ones(numel(data)/2,1));
% %loop through the replacer elements
% for n=1:numel(key_list)
%     datacell(ismember(datacell,key_list{n}))=val_list(n);
% end
inds=cellfun(@(x) find_indices(x,key_list),datacell);
L= inds~=0;
datacell(L)=val_list(inds(L));
%convert back to a char array
result=cell2mat(datacell);
clc,disp(result)
%local function:
function inds=find_indices(element,key_list)
[~,inds]=ismember(element,key_list);
end
