display variable value in input message

5 views (last 30 days)
I want to print the variable i and j values along with the input promt so that i can run the loop while getting the values but could not find something, tried fprintf but getting error "Error using input. The first argument to INPUT must be a string or character vector."
elements = input("Enter the number of elements: ");
i=1;
j=1;
while i<=elements
while j<=2
coordinates(i,j,1)=input(fprintf("Enter x coordinate of Element %i and node %i :",i,j));
j=j+1;
end
i=i+1;
end

You can use sprintf instead of fprintf like that.
elements = input("Enter the number of elements: ");
for i=1:elements
for j=1:2
coordinates(i,j,1)=input(sprintf("Enter x coordinate of Element %i and node %i :",i,j));
end
end
