I'm writing a program to find a persons training heart rate based on a few factors and when it asks for fitness level I want the user to be able to use low, medium or high as and answer.
disp('Enter your information to find your ideal training heart rate.')
age= input('Enter your age:');
rhr= input('What is your resting heart rate:');
fit= input('Would you describe your fitness level as low, medium or high?');
if fit=='low'
fit=0.55;
elseif fit=='medium'
fit=0.65;
else fit=='high'
fit=0.8;
end
thr=[(220-age)-rhr]*fit+rhr;
disp('Your ideal training heart rate is', num2str(thr))
I can get it to accept 'low' but not just low. How can I get it to accept words?
also what am i missing from my final part in order to get is to display everything?

Can you be more specific with display everything? Your code displays the thr value to me, is that what you want? Look at my answer for more information.

disp('Enter your information to find your ideal training heart rate.')
age= input('Enter your age:');
rhr= input('What is your resting heart rate:');
fit= input('Would you describe your fitness level as low, medium or high?');
id=listdlg('PromptString','make your choice',...
'SelectionMode','single',...
'ListString',{'low','medium','high'})
if id==1
fit=0.55;
elseif id==2
fit=0.65;
else
fit=0.8;
end
thr=[(220-age)-rhr]*fit+rhr;
disp('Your ideal training heart rate is', num2str(thr))

Just change your inputs function to be:
fit=input('Would you describe your fitness level as low, medium, or high?', 's')
The 's' at the end tells MATLAB it's a string, so now you can input low as an answer.
So, in your case, using the first example,
if strcmp(fit, 'low')==1
...
end
You might want to look at strncmp as well. You still need to put the quotations though.
Make sure to use elseif fit=='high' as well in that line. (or just else on its own)
