Hello there, I'm trying to get user input data and put them into existing excel data. However, when I run the code, at line 20, said error message pops up. I don't get why it happens - can anybody help me fix this problem?
close all;
clear all;
clc;
[num,txt,everything]=xlsread('filename.xlsx');
n=length(everything)+1;
while(1)
fprintf('---------------------------\n')
fprintf('1) car registration \n')
fprintf('0) close the programme \n')
fprintf('---------------------------\n')
m=input('enter the choice : ');
if m==1
fprintf(' *1) car registration \n')
fprintf('---------------------------\n')
number=input('- Vehicle information number :','s');
year=input('- starting year of registration(year) :');
period=input('- registration period(year) :');
owner=input('- owner :','s');
l=cell2mat(length(number)); %here I get the error
Anew={number(1:l-5),number(l-4),number(l-3:l),year,year+period,owner};
everything(n,1)=(Anew(1,1));
everything(n,2)=(Anew(1,2));
everything(n,3)=(Anew(1,3));
everything(n,4)=(Anew(1,4));
everything(n,5)=(Anew(1,5));
everything(n,6)=(Anew(1,6));
n=n+1;
end
if m==0
xlswrite('filename',everything);
break;
end
end

Yeah..You mean when l=num2cell(length(number)) right..?

No, I don't. You never mentioned using num2cell, so why would I assume you did? It looks to me like you need l=length(number). You said that returns an error. What exact error are you getting for that exact line of code.
If you change the code you're running without mentioning that, it is very difficult to help you. I can't see your screen. So now the previous 4 comments don't serve any purpose.

Hi,
As suggested by Rik in comments and tried by me length of the input string must not return any error statement. So cell2mat in the code can be removed because length will return a number not a cell array. Also, from the error message I can see that the number string that has been given as input must be empty. Try checking that number is correctly entered.
A small note is you are writing some lines using fprintf but I don’t see to which text file the lines are written.

fprintf is also often used to write to the command window. As the documentation describes it is equivalent to fid=1;.
