Matrix Input

I need to get a Matrix from input with known size. for example a 3*3 or 2*2 matrix. i could not do it with 'input'.

thank you.

You can either save the matrix into a variable and then pass that variable to input, or write matrix at the prompt using delimiter ; instead of enter.

For example

>> b = eye(3);
>> input('get matrix: ')
>> % input b at the prompt

or

>> input('get matrix: ')
>> % input [1 0;0 1] at the prompt

it is not what i wanted.

i want to get an input matrix from user.

Answer 2

[Walter Roberson]

There is no MATLAB command for getting a matrix of a known size. You can program it through repeated calls to input()

[Babak]

you mean that the only way of getting a matrix from user is to use 'input' ?

A uitable would be fine also.
