How do I fix this error to output the correct data? I get an error when I use disp.

%Take user input for the weights (kg) of all fish from the haul as a vector

fishWeight = input('Enter the weights of the fish with [ ] around and a space between the values.');

%Use a loop to determine the total weight for each grade of fish in the haul, and the total income for each grade of fish

wholeFishWeight = 0;

wholeFishIncome = 0;

filletFishWeight = 0;

filletFishIncome = 0;

canningFishWeight = 0;

canningFishIncome = 0;

petFoodFishWeight = 0;

petFoodFishIncome = 0;

fishExtractsFishWeight = 0;

fishExtractsFishIncome = 0;

for(i = 1 : length(fishWeight))

if(fishWeight(i)>=30)

wholeFishWeight = wholeFishWeight + fishWeight(i)

wholeFishIncome = wholeFishIncome + 22*fishWeight(i)

elseif(fishWeight(i)>=20)

filletFishWeight = filletFishWeight + fishWeight(i)

filletFishIncome = filletFishIncome + 16*fishWeight(i)

elseif(fishWeight(i)>=10)

canningFishWeight = canningFishWeight + fishWeight(i)

canningFishIncome = canningFishIncome + 5*fishWeight(i)

elseif(fishWeight(i)>=5)

petFoodFishWeight = petFoodFishWeight + fishWeight(i)

petFoodFishIncome = petFoodFishIncome + 3*fishWeight(i)

else

fishExtractsFishWeight = fishExtractsFishWeight + fishWeight(i)

fishExtractsFishIncome = fishExtractsFishIncome + 1*fishWeight(i)

end

end

%Determine the total income resulting from selling the haul

totalIncome = wholeFishIncome + filletFishIncome + canningFishIncome + petFoodFishIncome + fishExtractsFishIncome;

%Output a detailed invoice including the weight of each grade of fish, the total income for each grade of fish, and the total income from the entire haul

disp('You caught ' + wholeFishWeight + ' kg of fish for Whole Fish, to be sold for $' + wholeFishIncome)

disp('You caught ' + filletFishWeight + ' kg of fish for Fillet, to be sold for $' + filletFishIncome);

disp('You caught ' + canningFishWeight + ' kg of fish for Canning, to be sold for $' + canningFishIncome);

disp('You caught ' + petFoodFishWeight + ' kg of fish for Pet Food, to be sold for $' + petFoodFishIncome);

disp('You caught ' + fishExtractsFishWeight + ' kg of fish for Fish Extracts, to be sold for $' + fishExtractsFishIncome);

disp('Your total income for this haul is $' + totalIncome);

[Nora Khaled]

if the error in "disp", use

fprintf(formatSpec,A1,...,An)

or maybe this works

X=['You caught ' , wholeFishWeight , ' kg of fish for Whole Fish, to be sold for $' , wholeFishIncome];
disp(X)

[Hunter Fritsch]

I tried that but I stil get this error message

Error using +

Matrix dimensions must agree.

Error in fhunter_C4_P2 (line 40)

X=['You caught ' + wholeFishWeight + ' kg of fish for Whole Fish, to be sold for $'

, wholeFishIncome];
