Like to have input user command for cases

Like to ask user either enter 1,2,3 for a set of commands and then based off user unput, do a specific commands

for 1

( x=1, y=2, z=3)

for 2

(x=4, y=5, z=6)

for 3

(x=7,y=8,z=9)

then continue the code, so execute only a specific section.

Thanks.

Would switch-case be fine or can i use an IF statement saying if user input is 1, then do this etc?

You could use a switch-case statement

A case can be used for multiple criteria.

switch x
    case {1,2,3}
        %code
    case {4,5,6}
        %code
    case {7,8,9}
        %code
end

Hi @rockstar49,

You could use the following code :

prompt='Enter your input';
user_input=input(prompt);
switch user_input
    case{1,2,3}
        %write code for what you'd like to perform
    case{4,5,6}
        %write code for what you'd like to perform
    case{7,8,9}
        %write code for what you'd like to perform
end

In the above code u can take the user_input and perform commands based on requirements

Hope this helps!
