For each word in the email, check whether the word is in the dictionary.
Print out misspelled words.
How can you check whether the word in "sentence.txt" is in "text.txt"?
Also how can you print words not in text.txt file?
=
=
For example:
There is no one in th hous.
(It should check this sentence to "text.txt" and print out th & hous because it is not in "sentence.txt" file.)

CStr = textread('sentence.txt', '%s', 'delimiter', '\n')
CStr1 = textread('text.txt', '%s', 'delimiter', '\n')
contained = ismember(CStr, CStr1) % if ans 1 then it is in text.txt
notIndata2 = CStr(~contained) % print those are not in text.txt
notIndata2 = CStr(contained) % print those are in text.txt

If your question is not a homework project, which I hope it is not, then 'textread' is part of base-MATLAB and you should use it. Why go for the elementary functions?

it is a homework project, and it recommends to use those functions but I don't know how to :(
