Question

I am beginner in Matlab and I have not time for learning it. So I have next question.

I work with string data type like x = 2; y = 3; z = x + y;. I need to declare some variables and work with them. Can I add variables to stack? Can I write function like

function addVar(name, value) {
    stack[name] = value;
}

Answer 1

You can use cell arrays:

data{1} = 'x = 2';
data{2} = 'y = 3';
data{3} = 'z = x+y'

This will generate

>> data    
data = 

    'x = 2'    'y = 3'    'z = x+y'

and then you can use it, for example, like this:

>> for k = 1:length(data), eval(data{k}), end
x =
     2

y =
     3

z =
     5
