can any one explain this to me

x = strmatch(u(i),l,'exact')

The documentation explains it better than I can: strmatch (link).

Answer 1

[John BG]

the following examples may help

x = strmatch('max', char('max', 'minimax', 'maximum'))

returns

x = [1; 3] since rows 1 and 3 begin with 'max'. The statement

while

x = strmatch('max', char('max', 'minimax', 'maximum'),'exact')

returns

x = 1, since only row 1 matches 'max' exactly.

if you find these lines useful would you please mark my answer as Accepted Answer?

thanks in advance for time and attention
