How to have Matlab find row on excel and display the corresponding excel row?

Hello,

I have a code where it prompts you to type in a year, and it is supposed to return the horse/trainer/owner on the corresponding row in a separate excel file (that contains all of the information). I want to have Matlab find the row that contains the number and then display the information in the following columns. I cannot figure this out, here is my code so far.

Q = xlsread('KentuckyDerbyStats');

prompt = 'Please pick a year between 1950 and 2017     ';

x = Q(:,1);
year = input('Please pick a year between 1950 and 2017     ');
true = (x == year);
answer = Q(true,:)

That code looks like it would work. However, it is not recommended to use true or false as variable names, as they are needed to represent logical values; at the very least you are going to confuse people who read the code.
