Running a program multiple times: Retrieval of live currency rates

Hi,

I haven't used matlab in several years and so have forgotten some of the lingo!

I would like to download the Cable price from a website, which I have managed using urlread(). I then split the returned string into several prices.

What I am struggling with is then storing this price and then running the program again.

Put simply, I wish to retrieve a url every 10 seconds and store the data so that I can then analyse it.

I imagine this is a very simple problem!

Many thanks

Stu

Why can't you just use save() or fprintf() or csvwrite() or something like that, depending on what format you want the output file in?

Try allwords: http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/27184-allwords

or else strtok().
