Each row refers to a prompt. The first columnspecifies the number of lines of input for a prompt. The second columnspecifies the width of the field in characters.answer = inputdlg(prompt,title,lineNo,defAns) defAns specifies thedefault value to display for each prompt. defAns must contain the samenumber of elements as prompt and all elements must be strings.answer = inputdlg(prompt,title,lineNo,defAns,Resize) Resizespecifies whether or not the dialog box can be resized. Permissible values are'on' and 'off' where 'on' means that the dialog box can be resized and thatthe dialog box is not modal.2-247
