Have a look at the second syntax for input() http://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/ref/input.html

You can use sprintf() to create a string that can be used as a prompt in input(). For example, to put 2 new lines (\n) followed by a string, you can do this:

userPrompt = sprintf('\n\nEnter some stuff:');

Adapt it to your homework and send it into input() or inputdlg(). Put a \n anywhere you want a new line in your string.
