clear

word=lower(double(input('Enter a character \n')));
letter = char(input('Guess a character : ','s'));
stat = findstr(word,letter);
I'm trying to get the user to enter any number of character(not case sensitive). Then enter any random character and see if it matches any character of their first input.

What are you trying todo??
You said that 'trying to get the user to enter any number'.
But your code :
word=lower(double(input('Enter a character \n')));
Now, how can I use command 'lower' with numerical (double) input??
command lower works only for string, right??

I thought lower was to not make it not case sensitive. And I'm trying to get the user to any character, not just numbers.

Did you mean??
clear; clc;
word = lower(input('Enter a word : ','s'));
letter = input('Guess a character : ','s');
stat = findstr(word,letter);
if ~isempty(stat)
for x = 1 : length(stat)
fprintf('Character %c macthes with word %s in column %d\n',letter,word,stat(x));
end
else
fprintf('Character %c no found in word %s\n',letter,word);
end

word = input('Enter a word: ', 's');
letter = input('Guess a character : ','s');
stat = ismember(letter,lower(word));
stat = 1: character is present in word
stat = 0: character is not present in word
