MATLAB How to include variables in input, in for loops?

Question

So the code goes something like this..

for i=1:5
x(i) = input(['Input for number', i );
end

when i run, instead i get something like "Input a complex number []" where [] is just a block (i cannot get the symbol here), how do i make it so for every input it can say "Input for number 1", "Input for number 2", etc?

When casting from double to char, you convert between ASCII-Codes and the character. To get the character 1 use num2str

for i=1:5
  x(i) = input(['Input for number ', num2str(i)]);
end
