How to enter an input in an active 'while' loop?

Hi everybody,

I want to 'break' a 'while' loop when an input gets a specific value. Unfortunately, I don't know why when I change the input value, (when 'while' loop is executing), the 'while' loop doesn't recognize! this change?

Please guide me..

Thanks, David

Thanks Paulo,

My problem was that I expected to MATLAB understands handles.xxx variable! (even though I used 'guidata(hObject, handles)' in callback of my button)

but your suggestion to use 'global' variable nicely works.

Thanks

x = 1;

while x == 1
    x = input('Value for x: ');
end

Oleg,

Thanks for the response, but I didn't mean this type of input (using 'input' func.). Let's assume I want to run a 'while' loop and terminate it when I press a push button key on my GUI! Could you please suggest me something else?

Thanks

Others' comments are welcome.

instead of x == 1 you can verify that the button has been pushed.
