Opening Websites and using google

Hello everyone,

So I asked earlier if there was a way to search for something on Google using MATLAB. The concept is that I would ask the code to look for cat pictures using Google and the MATLAB browser would open up with cat pics on Google. Is there a way to do that please?

Also is there a way to input a website that would open whatever site I input with one MATLAB code. So this is how far I got:

any(strcmpi(res,{'Open website','Open page','Open site'}))
      NET.addAssembly('System.Speech');
            obj = System.Speech.Synthesis.SpeechSynthesizer;
            obj.Volume = 100;
            Speak(obj, 'What website would you like to go to ');
            url=input('Enter website ')
            
            NET.addAssembly('System.Speech');
            obj = System.Speech.Synthesis.SpeechSynthesizer;
            obj.Volume = 100;
            Speak(obj, 'Got ya');
            web(url)

I had a feeling this wouldn't work, but I would input a website or any website and the MATLAB browser will open with that website.

Please help and thank you

Try this:

webSite = 'http://mathworks.com';
web(webSite, '-browser');

It will open the website in a new tab using the default web browser.
