MATLAB: Write a script that will keep prompting the user for a string then stores them in a cell array and prints to display all strings in this cell array:

Question

string=input('PLEASE INPUT A STRING:','s');

string1={i}

I believe I would need a for loop and to use celldisp but I am having trouble figuring out how to do those.

Answer 1

Try this:

maxCount = 10; % a "Failsafe"
counter = 1; % Failsafe.
while counter <= maxCount
  string = input('PLEASE INPUT A STRING (Type quit to exit):', 's');
  if ~isempty(strfind(lower(string), 'quit'))
    break;
  end
  strings{counter} = string
  counter = counter + 1;
end
fprintf('Done!\n');
celldisp(strings);
