Creating an array of strings for mapping indexes to values

In Python it is easy to implement but wondering how can we do it in MATLAB. Can someone trnslate this toi MATLAB code.
stationmap = [S0,S1,S2,S3,S4,S5,S6,S7,S8,S9]
for i in range(10000):
Station_ID = stationmap[i % 10]
print("For Time {0}, we have station {1}".format(i, Station_ID))

This is MATLAB, so you can easily get rid of the loop:
>> V = 1:10000;
>> C = {'S0', 'S1', 'S2', 'S3', 'S4', 'S5', 'S6', 'S7', 'S8', 'S9'};
>> T = [num2cell(V);C(1+mod(V-1,numel(C)))];
>> fprintf('For Time {%d}, we have station {%s}\n',T{:})
For Time {1}, we have station {S0}
For Time {2}, we have station {S1}
For Time {3}, we have station {S2}
For Time {4}, we have station {S3}
For Time {5}, we have station {S4}
For Time {6}, we have station {S5}
For Time {7}, we have station {S6}
For Time {8}, we have station {S7}
For Time {9}, we have station {S8}
For Time {10}, we have station {S9}
For Time {11}, we have station {S0}
... lots more lines here
For Time {9993}, we have station {S2}
For Time {9994}, we have station {S3}
For Time {9995}, we have station {S4}
For Time {9996}, we have station {S5}
For Time {9997}, we have station {S6}
For Time {9998}, we have station {S7}
For Time {9999}, we have station {S8}
For Time {10000}, we have station {S9}

What about:
stationmap = {'S0', 'S1', 'S2', 'S3', 'S4', 'S5', 'S6', 'S7', 'S8', 'S9'}
% Alternatively:
% stationmap = sprintfc('S%d', 0:9);
for k = 1:10000
fprint('For Time {%d}, we have station {%s}\n', ...
k, stationmap{mod(k, 10} + 1));
end
