how to execute string variable?

can i do this in matlab? %first i want to make a variable named = xxx, and xxx contains MATLAB commands just like this:

xxx = strvcat('x0=5','a=2','c=x0+a')

%but when I use eval, it doesn't work eval(xxx)

Anyone can help me?

On the other hand, Andika, avoiding EVAL would be a much better idea. Please read the hundrets of related threads in this forum.
