My program is set up to ask the user for an input variable, as follows:
GOAL=input('WHAT IS YOUR GOAL?(FIT=FITNESS, FB=FAT BURN, N=NEITHER): ','s');
Then, I wrote an if, elseif statement written as:
if GOAL==('FIT')
I wrote the same thing for if GOAL==('FB') and if GOAL==('N'), and each is followed by functions to be executed for whichever the user chooses.
The error message that I am getting says:
Error using == Matrix dimensions must agree.
Am I approaching it wrong? Anything helps, thanks.

I suggest you to use strcmp
GOAL=input('WHAT IS YOUR GOAL?(FIT=FITNESS, FB=FAT BURN, N=NEITHER):\n ','s');
if strcmp(GOAL, 'FITNESS')
sprintf('GOOD')
elseif strcmp(GOAL, 'FB')
sprintf('ALSO GOOD')
else strcmp(GOAL, 'N')
sprintf('WHAT YOU SEEK HUMAN')
end

In matlab, strings are arrays of characters. Two strings with different lengths have different array dimensions. e.g.
'dog' is a 3x1 character array.
'bird' is a 4x1 character array
So something like this
if ('dog' == 'bird')
will give an error because you are trying to compare a 3x1 array with a 4x1 array, and to compare arrays they must have the same length.
try the strcmp() function instead. i.e
if strcmp(GOAL, 'fit')
