Help with matrix that stores info/interactive?
显示 更早的评论
I'm trying to create a matrix/code for the following stipulations. First, create a matrix that stores the name of products and price. 1st and 2nd column should be the product name and its price, respectively. The number of product items should be flexible. Your program will ask to input product name, and it should display the price by looking at the matrix you defined. If the input product name is not in the list, it will display “Item is not in our store. Please retry.” This query should be repeated until you type in “Bye”.
How can I make a matrix interactive like this?

It is my understanding that you want to create some way of storing product/pricing information with the following stipulations:.
- There should be no limit on how many products there are
- The program will ask user to provide a potential product
- If available the price of that object will be displayed
- If 'Bye' is entered the program will exit
- If the input is not valid the program should display 'Item is not in our store. Please retry.'
Based on your criteria I suggest using container.Map. The following example is one way of achieving the above:
%%Creating Map
% populate each variable
% Order determines which price is mapped to the specific product
productNames = {'car', 'basketball', 'pen'};
prices = [5000 20 1];
MyMap = containers.Map(productNames, prices);
% add a value to Map
MyMap('tv') = 300;
%%Using Map with User
readInput = true;
while(readInput)
userResponse = input('Please Input a product name: ', 's');
if strcmp(userResponse, 'Bye')
readInput = false;
else
if isKey(MyMap, userResponse)
disp(['Price for ', userResponse, ': $', num2str(MyMap(userResponse))]);
else
disp('Item is not in our store. Please retry');
end
end
end
Please refer to the container.Map documentation for information on how to operate on maps and the methods that come along with this data type

This is what a matrix would look like. MATLAB calls this particular one a 4x2 string array.
%%Creating Map
% populate each variable
% Order determines which price is mapped to the specific product
productNames = ["car", "basketball", "pen"];
prices = ["5000" "20" "1"];
MyMatrix = [productNames' prices'];
% add a value to Map
MyMatrix(4,1) = "tv";
MyMatrix(4,2) = "400";
What do you have in mind for the switch? The only constant thing it can match with is "Bye", everything else depends on the content of the matrix.
