tf = 0;
comp_fav_day = 'monday'; %Lets say
while (tf == 0)
   answer=input('favorite day?\n' , 's');
   tf = strcmpi(comp_fav_day,answer);
end

btw, when you get the answer from a user that works for you, you should 'accept that answer'

Can you tell me what does tf mean ?

[Amit]

tf is just a flag that switches to 1 when both strings matches.

[Riri]

can I use any other variable as a flag like a=0 while a==0

[Amit]

Yup. You can change tf to any variable name you want.
