I want to input 4 numbers from the keyboard, then have the m file give me the largest and second largest numbers.

How do I check that the input is a number (and not a letter/other character) and how do I get the second largest number to be shown?

Also the programme should run continuously, taking 4 numbers at a time until the user wants to terminate, eg with an 'N' , how do I do this?

Thanks in advance

xvalueone = 'enter a value for x';
xvalue = input(xvalueone);
a=xvalue
xvaluetwo = 'enter another value for x';
xvaluetwo = input(xvaluetwo);
b=xvaluetwo
xvaluethree = 'enter a third value for x';
xvaluethree = input(xvaluethree);
c=xvaluethree
xvaluefour = 'enter a 4th value for x';
xvaluefour = input(xvaluefour);
d=xvaluefour
A=[a,b,c,d]
C = max(A)

I don't know how to only allow input from numbers, how to keep the programme running until I terminate it or how to terminate it.

Thanks

Start with this:

% Ask user for 4 numbers.
defaultValues = {'1', '2', '3', '4'};
titleBar = 'Enter values';
userPrompts = {'Enter number #1', 'Enter number #2', 'Enter number #3', 'Enter number #4'};
% Loop until user clicks Cancel
while true
  caUserInput = inputdlg(userPrompts, titleBar, 1, defaultValues);
  if isempty(caUserInput),break,end; % Bail out if they clicked Cancel.
  [value1, value2, value3, value4] = caUserInput{:}
  value1 = str2double(value1)
  value2 = str2double(value2)
  value3 = str2double(value3)
  value4 = str2double(value4)
  
  % Check for a valid number.
  if isnan(value1)
    % They didn't enter a number.
    % They clicked Cancel, or entered a character, symbols, or something else not allowed.
    message = sprintf('value1 is not a number.\nI said it had to be an number.');
    uiwait(warndlg(message));
  end
  if isnan(value2)
    % They didn't enter a number.
    % They clicked Cancel, or entered a character, symbols, or something else not allowed.
    message = sprintf('value2 is not a number.\nI said it had to be an number.');
    uiwait(warndlg(message));
  end
  if isnan(value3)
    % They didn't enter a number.
    % They clicked Cancel, or entered a character, symbols, or something else not allowed.
    message = sprintf('value3 is not a number.\nI said it had to be an number.');
    uiwait(warndlg(message));
  end
  if isnan(value4)
    % They didn't enter a number.
    % They clicked Cancel, or entered a character, symbols, or something else not allowed.
    message = sprintf('value4 is not a number.\nI said it had to be an number.');
    uiwait(warndlg(message));
  end
end

The requirements are to also have the loop terminate when the letter "n" is inputted into any of the four boxes:

This is what I have now, mainly based on the original code from image analyst.

Tried to implement an if command for the termination by "n" but failed.

 defaultValues = {'1', '2', '3', '4'};
titleBar = 'Enter values';
userPrompts = {'Enter number #1', 'Enter number #2', 'Enter number #3', 'Enter number #4'};

while true caUserInput = inputdlg(userPrompts, titleBar, 1, defaultValues); if isempty(caUserInput),break,end; [value1, value2, value3, value4] = caUserInput{:} value1 = str2double(value1) value2 = str2double(value2) value3 = str2double(value3) value4 = str2double(value4)

if isnan(value1) message = sprintf('value1 is not a number.\nI said it had to be an number.'); uiwait(warndlg(message)); end if isnan(value2) message = sprintf('value2 is not a number.\nI said it had to be an number.'); uiwait(warndlg(message)); end if isnan(value3) message = sprintf('value3 is not a number.\nI said it had to be an number.'); uiwait(warndlg(message)); end if isnan(value4) message = sprintf('value4 is not a number.\nI said it had to be an number.'); uiwait(warndlg(message)); end

end

a = [value1 value2 value3 value4] maxnumberis = max(a(:))

b=sort(a(:),'descend'); disp(b'); secondmaxnumber= b(2,1)
