A=input('amplitude= ')
N=input('period= ')
I get the following errors ??? Error using ==> title at 29 Incorrect number of input arguments
Error in ==> title at 23 h = title(gca,varargin{:});

A=input('amplitude= ')
N=input('period= ')
title(sprintf('Amplitude = %f mm, Period = %f s', A, N))

It is more much robust to use the 's' option for input, which can be used like this:
A = str2double(input('amplitude= ','s'));
N = str2double(input('period= ','s'));
title(sprintf('Amplitude = %g mm, Period = %g s', A, N))
This avoids the possibility of arbitrary code being input and executed, which is what input without the 's' option will do.
