Using loop to label multiple outputs

10 views (last 30 days)
I have an array X that is one column of values with any number of rows (the number will be determined prior in the program). I want to create a for loop that will make a label for each value and then display the actual value.
Something like this:
X = [11; 22; 33; 44];
for i = 1:length(X)
X(display the value of 'i') = X(i)
end
% With the output on the command window being:
X1 = 11;
X2 = 22;
X3 = 33;
X4 = 44;
How would I go about this? Apologies if my question is poorly phrased.

No need for a loop:
>> X = [11;22;33;44];
>> fprintf('X%u = %u\n',[1:numel(X);X(:).']);
X1 = 11
X2 = 22
X3 = 33
X4 = 44
If you really want to use a loop:
for k = 1:numel(X)
fprintf('X%u = %u\n',k,X(k));
end
If you are planning on actually creating numbered variables, read this first:
