I'm trying to create a code that convert in,ft,cm,mm to m(meters). but as i run the code, it give me a list at the left side. what im trying to do is first i will chose what i want to be converted i'ts either in,ft,cm, and mm, then i will enter a number to be converted then the result will show or pop up.
choice = menu('Choose a unit','in','ft','cm','mm');
m = input('Input a value to be converted:');
result = (m);
switch choice
case 'in'
result = result*0.0254;
case 'cm'
result = result/100;
case 'mm'
result = result/1000;
case 'ft'
result = result/0.3048;
end

menu() does not return the string that was chosen: it returns the index of the string. So for example if 'ft' were chosen, that is the second possibility, so menu() would return 2.

The menu documentation tell us that menu returns the index of the selected button, not the string of the button. Try this:
U = {'in','ft','cm','mm'};
C = menu('Choose a unit',U{:});
V = str2double(input('Input a value to be converted: ','s'));
switch U{C}
case 'in'
... your code
end
Note that I also replaced the insecure input(...) call with str2double(input(...,'s')), which prevents any arbitrary code being executed.
