How to make character String

5 views (last 30 days)
Hiya,
If I have a character string that the User Inputed,
for instance
prompt = 'What is the character string ';
str = input(prompt,'s');
And the user inputs something like
the quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog
I want each individual word to be stored into an array.
I know this is simple and am sorry for my silliness.
How could I go about doing this?
Thanks

str='the quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog'
out=strsplit(str)
strsplit was introduced in R2013a
If your Matlab version is older
str='the quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog'
out=regexp(str,'\S+','match')
