how to combine switch statements for final message?

I was stuck on combining 2 switch statements for a final message of a program.

here is my code:

vec= input('enter provided code','s')-'0'

day=(vec(1)*vec(2)-vec(3))

   switch day

   case 1

disp ('Monday')

case 2

disp('Tuesday')

case 3

disp('Wednesday')

case 4 

disp('Thursday')

....
if (mod(vec(4),3))

rvp= (vec(6)-vec(5))  

switch rvp

case 1 

   disp('B')

case 2

disp('L')

case 3

disp('RC')

....

X= ['rescue at', str2num(day), 'at', str2num(rvp)]

disp(X)

here, i want it to display: rescue at Monday at L or something of that sort but when i try to enter something in i get:

enter provided code510129

Friday

rescue at5at1

can you please help how to put switch statements part of the final message using the display function?

thanks

Do not disp() the values as soon as they are calculated. Assign them to a variable instead. And then at the end, put all the variables together.

how would i do that with multiple cases? can you please give me an example?

[Walter Roberson]

switch day
  case 1
    dayname = 'Monday';
  case 2
    dayname = 'Tuesday';
  otherwise
    dayname = '?Day?';
end
switch rvp
  case 1
    rvpcode = 'B';
  case 2
    rvpcode = 'L';
  otherwise
    rvpcode = '?RVP?';
end

result = [dayname, rvpcode];

Or....

daynames = {'Monday', 'Tuesday', 'Wednesday' ...};
rvpcodes = {'B', 'L', 'RC' ...};

dayname = daynames{day};
rvpcode = rvpcodes{rvp};
result = [dayname, rvpcode];

Notice the complete lack of switch/case
