If I use the built in menu function, can I then use "switch" and call the "case" by the order it appears on the menu?

2 views (last 30 days)
choice = menu('Choose an option!','Set user name', 'Load data file');
switch choice
case 1
% Set user name
set_user_name();
case 2
% Load data file

Of course? Why wouldn't you be able to? And it looks like you actually tried it so don't you already know the answer?

My menu has 11 options, so I haven't completed it yet. I was wondering if the numbers have to have an apostrophe around them or if it can just be free-standing. (e.g. 1 vs '1')

No quotes. Just do it exactly like you had it. Anyway, it's easy enough to try both ways if you weren't sure.
