How to append text and numbers into a title
Show older comments
I am trying to get the title to a plot on two lines, with the first line being a string, and the second one being a combination of a string, day number and month name. Following is one of a number of unsuccessful attemps.
start_month=12;
start_day=1;
mth = month(datetime(1, start_month_ISI, 1), 'Name'); % To get the name of the month
title({'C. Beauharnois';'No. of days to first ISI=1 since',+start_day+'mth'});
The title should show up as follows:
1st line: C. Beauharnois
2nd line: No. of days to first ISI=1 since December 1
Tx!

start_month=12;
start_day=1;
mth = month(datetime(1, start_month, 1), 'Name'); % To get the name of the month
title({'C. Beauharnois';['No. of days to first ISI=1 since ',mth{1} ' ' num2str(start_day)]});
start_month_ISI=12;
start_day=1;
mth = month(datetime(1, start_month_ISI, 1), 'Name'); % To get the name of the month
title({'C. Beauharnois';sprintf('No. of days to first ISI=1 since %s %d',mth{1},start_day)});

You were so close, but you can't use + to concatenate character vectors, use strings instead.
I changed the single quotes to double quotes, removed an extraneous comma and changed the reference to start_month_ISI to start_month (and added some spaces).
start_month=12;
start_day=1;
mth = month(datetime(1, start_month, 1), 'Name'); % To get the name of the month
title({"C. Beauharnois";"No. of days to first ISI=1 since " + start_day + " mth"});
