Command window help

When ever I run my script in matlab, after it is done, the >> in the command window won't show up after, and also I am unable to close MATLAB without ending the task. Does anyone know how I can avoid this happening?

Is Matlab continuing to say that it is Busy ?

You have tried control-c to interrupt ?

Do you have any uiwait() or pause() calls in the script, or any loops?

We might need to see the script to give a better answer.

it says it is busy.. here is my script.

I = input('Please enter the intial ammount put in the account: ');

T = input('Please enter the target ammount for the account: ');

Y=0;

while T ~= I*(1.05^Y);

Y = Y+1;

end

fprintf('It will take %i years to save up for your target ammount.',Y);

Your WHILE loop just stops when T is EXACTLY I*(1.05^Y). If it is not exact the same (more than 2.2204e-016 makes it fail), the loop will never stop.

Try

while T > I*(1.05^Y);
