How can I use a floating point number with input command?

L = 10
a = input('Enter the location of the force (0 - %0.2f meters): ');

How can I get the prompt to output as 'Enter the location of the force (0 - 10.00 meters): '.

L = 10;
S = sprintf('Enter the location of the force (0 - %0.2f meters): ',L);
a = input(S);

Ahh that makes sense, I tried using sprintf before but I put it on the outside so I got an error. Thank you!
