foreach loop with strings in Matlab

Question

I want to create a loop that will iterate over several strings, but unable to do so in Matlab.

What works is:

for i=1:3
  if (i==1)
    b=\'cow\';
  else         


        

Answer 1

Or you can do:

for i={'cow','dog','cat'}
   disp(i{1})
end

Result:

cow
dog
cat
