This code is explained in the following YouTube Video:
While Loops - Validate User Input: https://youtu.be/LyKb1MvCiG8
In this video I cover how to code while loops in MATLAB and how these can be used to control the type of information your user must provide to continue in the code (user stopping, error checking, validating user input). I provide two main demonstrations: 1. error checking a number (whole, positive number less than or equal to 157) and 2. error checking a string (yes or no).
