Write a MATLAB statement that results in the input request shown in bold. The >> shows where your statement is typed, and the | shows where the cursor waits for input. The display must be correctly positioned. Each has a space before the cursor (shown as |). The input variable name and the variable type are shown at the right.
- a. >>
Enter the length of the bolt in inches: | (bolt, a number)
- b. >>
Enter the company’s name: | (Company, text)
- c. >>
(In this statement, the window displayed will appear for the user to choose a color, and the result will be stored in the Variable LineColor.)
a.
