Displaying multiple values separately

Hello all, I have a code which calculates 2 values,one for a1=1217 and the other is for a2=-845.42. Although the code is working correctly, the end results comes as:

a1 & a2=
         1217
      -845.42

How can I display the end results as:

a1=1217 
a2=-845.42

The code for reporting I used is :

disp('a1 & a2='); disp(a)

% where a=T\P;

I think I should use fprintf but I am not sure how.

I hope my question makes sense. Many thanks

>> a = [1217,-845.42];
>> fprintf('a1 = %g\na2 = %g\n',a)
a1 = 1217
a2 = -845.42

a1 = rand ; 
a2 = rand ;
fprintf('a1 = %f, a2 = %f\n',a1,a2)
