Answer 1

Perhaps a is a string with a newline in it. To make two separate variables, try:

values = strtrim(strread(a, '%s', 'delimiter', sprintf('\n')))

strread will split a into separate lines, and strtrim will remove leading/trailing whitespace. Then you can access the lines using

values{1}
values{2}

(note that you must use curly brackets since this is a cell array of strings).
