How do I identify each element in a cell array as a string or a number?

I have a cell array A = {2,8,10,'Good',15,3,21,'Morning',12,26,9,'Joe'}. I want to perform a function on each element depending on whether it is a string or a number. So far, I have tried ischar but it returns 0 for all elements.

A = {2,8,10,'Good',15,3,21,'Morning',12,26,9,'Joe'};
q = cellfun(@(x) isnumeric(x) && numel(x)==1, A);
numA = A(q)
charA = A(~q)
