fprintf two 3x1 matrix's w/ text

using fprint f, lets say you have two matrix...

bearing=(30:50:60)

range=(600,1237,579) <---- these would be 3x1

like bearing looks like this = 30

50

60

not sure if i wrote those vectors or matrix or whatever they are in the beggining correct but it looks like the example.

so its in a colum you know...

so say you have that and you wanna display using fprintf:

The potential PIW bears 30 from the CG Asset at a range of 600 yards.

The potential PIW bears 50 from the CG Asset at a range of 1237 yards.

The potential PIW bears 60 from the CG Asset at a range of 579 yards.

I tried

fprintf('The potential PIW bears %g from the CG Asset at a range of %g yards.', [bearing, range])

and

fprintf('The potential PIW bears %d from the CG Asset at a range of %g yards.', [bearing, range])

could someone help?

Make sure that you add an end of line character "\n" to the end of the fprintf statement, otherwise evrtything will be printed on a single line. Hope it helps.

bearing = [30 50 60];
range = [600 1237 579];

fprintf('The potential PIW bears %i from the CG Asset at a range of %i yards.\n', [bearing;range])

The potential PIW bears 30 from the CG Asset at a range of 600 yards.
The potential PIW bears 50 from the CG Asset at a range of 1237 yards.
The potential PIW bears 60 from the CG Asset at a range of 579 yards.

bearing=[30 50 60];range=[600 1237 579];
for k=1:3
    fprintf('The potential PIW bears %g from the CG Asset at a range of %g yards.\n',bearing(k),range(k));
end

The potential PIW bears 30 from the CG Asset at a range of 600 yards.
The potential PIW bears 50 from the CG Asset at a range of 1237 yards.
The potential PIW bears 60 from the CG Asset at a range of 579 yards.
