Hi,

I have a Vektor in the Workspace which includes a string.

Now I want to search a 'word' in this vector.

How can I do thios or can help me someone?

I´m going to explain it better:

My Workspace file look like this:

72 101 108 108 111 32 73 32 97 109 32 51 48 32 121 101 97 114 115 32 111 108 100 46

which means,

"Hello I am 30 years old.".

Now I want to search the word "years" in this Workspace file.

What is a 'workspace file'?

I don't know what you mean by workspace file. Using proper terminology and examples that are valid matlab commands would help. Possibly you mean this:

v = [72 101 108 108 111 32 73 32 97 109 32 51 48 32 121 101 97 114 115 32 111 108 100 46];

s = char(v); %convert v into characters 
yearloc = strfind(v, 'years')

If you mean search "FOR" a word, then this will work:

string = 'Now I want to search a "word" in this vector.'
location = strfind(string, 'word')

If you want to literally "search a word" for a particular letter, say 'r', then you can also use strfind() to search inside that word:

string = 'word'
location = strfind(string, 'r')
