vector in a sting input

Hello, im wondering if i can include a value i ( vector that goes i=1:n) inside the input so that the user so can write me back a string.

Example : B(i)=input('Expecify the type of nod(SL,PQ,PV) for the nod ' i ' ,'s')

I want the user to receive

Expecify the type of nod(SL,PQ,PV) for the nod 1

and 1 should be i ( the vector 1:n).

This question should repeat itself until the vector ends

thanks a lot

It's unclear , you need to illustrate with an example with an expected result.

You need this syntax for string concatenation:

B(i) = input( ['Node: ' num2str(i)], 's' )

or

B(i) = input( sprintf('Node: %s', i), 's' )

An interesting way to do this in one line is to use arrayfun

B = arrayfun(@(i) input(['Node ' num2str(i) ': '],'s'), 1:4, 'uni', 0)
