MATLAB: Regex question

Question

[EDIT: 20110525 11:04 CDT – reformat – WDR]

Hi,

I have the following code

[matchedToken] = regexp(scopeLine,'Channel\s0\sdisplays 
\s(.*)','tokens');

I would like the regular expression to match this:

Channel 0 displays 
Channel 1 displays 
Channel 2 displays 
Channel 3 displays

What I want to do is use the variable headercount in a for loop to increment the channel number automatically

% Keeps count of how many header names was located 
headerCount = 0; 
for j=0:3 
    [matchedToken] = regexp(scopeLine,'Channel\sheaderCount\sdisplays 
\s(.*)','tokens'); 
    headerCount++; 
end

I cannot figure out how to do this.

Thanks for any help,

Amish

[matchedToken] = regexp(scopeLine,sprintf('Channel\\s%d\\sdisplays 
\\s(.*)',headerCount),'tokens');
