Simple Question

Simple Question

Simple Question

(OP)
Hi, I apologize for the simplicity of my question, but I'm just learning to use matlab.  I'm currently making a script to print out commands.

I was wondering how to properly display set characters
i.e.: disp 'Hello'
but then have a changing variable in the same line.  Every time I try to use a variable in the command I get an
"n =" such and such. I'd rather it just display the number it is associated with and move on.  Do I need to use a different command?
Thanks for any help

RE: Simple Question

ty the function form call to display
i.e.

for iCount = 1 : 3
    disp( [ 'Hello World! Day ', int2str( iCount ) ] )
end

RE: Simple Question

Now, who said Matlab was tricky?
