Hi! My first user-input prompt is to enter a number (say, x). What should I write (code) if my next message box MUST contain the same number of prompt questions as x?

I'd use a string array. I'm going to hard code the value of n to keep this example simple, but you could query for it using a dialog.

n = 5;
questions = "Enter the value for element number " + (1:n);
inputdlg(questions)

Here is my code, but it is discontinuous. That is, after a user input in the first message box, there is still a need to input the same in the Command Window. How can I fix this?

prompt="Enter Number of Factors ";

inputdlg(prompt);

x=input(prompt);

n = x;

questions = "Enter the level for Factor " + (1:n);

inputdlg(questions);
