Listing the input arguments and values of a function in a Matrix

Is there a way to list the input arguments in a function by outputting them in a Cell array

[input1 = x; input2 = y; input3 =z; ..etc]

I have a large function with about 20 inputs and want to check on them all before I proceed.

Yes, you can. Use this example:

InputArgument={'this is the string for the pattern','pattern'}
strfind(InputArgument{:});

would this work with integers and doubles?

Thanks

You want varargin, it'll work for EVERYTHING!

[Fangjun Jiang]

Yes.

InputArguments={randint(1,5),2}

find(InputArguments{:})

William, i'm thinking you want to use varargin. By defining the input arguments as varargin you can have as many input arguments as you want. Parsing this is pretty easy too, its simply a cell array of the arguments. Look at using the InputParser to parse it.
