String Array

[stoucha]

Hi.

I would like to create an array of strings such that I can reference them
similar to referencing values in a matrix.

Here is what I have tried:

a = ["string1"; "string2"; "string3"];

when I type "a" at an octave prompt I get three lines as follows
string1
string2
string3

however, if I type a(1) in an attempt to get just "string1" I just get "s"

Any ideas how to achieve an array of strings where I can reference each
element individually.

Thanks,
