I would like to know if there is a way to break up a long (very long--several sentences) string into several lines? In my program, I need to use an input command which contains a question for the user. But I need to make it look presentable and I don't want the user to have to scroll the page. Is there a way to do that? I know that the '...' command doesn't work for strings.<br /> Thank you very much!!<br /> <br /> http://www.programmersheaven.com/mb/ctocplusplustomatlab/419740/419740/breaking-up-strings-in-matlab/ Tue, 16 Nov 2010 15:08:48 -0700 Matlab http://www.programmersheaven.com/mb/ctocplusplustomatlab/419740/419856/re-breaking-up-strings-in-matlab/#419856 Try this approach:<br /> <br /> s1 = 'string 1 ';<br /> s2 = 'string 2';<br /> s3 = 'string 3';<br /> s4 = [s1 s2 s3 ' '];<br /> <br /> i1 = input(s1, 's');<br /> i2 = input(s4, 's'); http://www.programmersheaven.com/mb/ctocplusplustomatlab/419740/419856/re-breaking-up-strings-in-matlab/#419856 Sun, 21 Nov 2010 18:14:00 -0700 Matlab
