how to merge two string vectors and get third vector?

hi

I have two decimals number I convert them in binary strings '00011011010001' and '00110110100010' and I want to merge them like:

total strings are 14. I want to take starting 5 digits of the first string and merge them with the 6 to 14 digits of the second string like '00011110100010' as an output

a=1745
b=3490

c = reshape(cellstr(dec2bin(a)), size(a))
d = reshape(cellstr(dec2bin(b)), size(b))

e=cellfun(@(s) [s(1:5)], c, 'UniformOutput', false)
f=cellfun(@(s) [s(6:14)], d, 'UniformOutput', false)

now, how I merge e and f to get '00011110100010'. kindly help me I will highly thankful to you.

regards

str1 = '00011011010001' ;
str2 = '00110110100010'  ;
str3 = strcat(str1(1:5),str2(6:14)) ;
