Here are three ways to display multiple variable values on the same line in the Command Window.

Concatenate multiple character vectors together using the[]operator. Convert any numeric values to characters using thenum2strfunction. Usedispto display the result.

name ='Alice'; age = 12; X = [name,' will be ',num2str(age),' this year.']; disp(X)

Alice will be 12 this year.

Usesprintfto create text, and then display it withdisp.

name ='Alice'; age = 12; X = sprintf('%s will be %d this year.',name,age); disp(X)

Alice will be 12 this year.

Usefprintfto directly display the text without creating a variable. However, to terminate the display properly, you must end the text with the newline (\n) metacharacter.

name ='Alice'; age = 12; fprintf('%s will be %d this year.\n',name,age);

Alice will be 12 this year.
