How do you convert the content of one cell of a character/cell array to a string?

How do you convert the content of one cell of a character/cell array to a string?

@Eliah Verbeemen: what is in that cell? What class? What size?

string(cellArray);

To combine them all in one string use

strjoin(cellArray)

[Eliah Verbeemen]

The whole idea: I like to find a substringin a structure array. Someone of you proposed: NumberOfCell=find(cellfun(@strcmp,namecharacterarray,repmat({'0.1420'},size(characterarray)))==1); but I get always that 0.420 isn´t present., even if it is present.

The picture just shows one char array. Where is cell array? Can you show the actual data and what you want as output.

I found a very unhandy possibility filelines2 = strsplit(filecontent, 'word that one search'); [OO,OOO]= size(filelines2); if OOO>1 (the word is present)

@eliah,

You seem to be using very imprecise terms to describe the type of your data. A structure array has a very precise meaning in matlab. So does cell array. They're two very different types and also completely different from what is shown in you screenshot, a char array.

Someone of you proposed: NumberOfCell=find(cellfun(@strcmp,...

That's very convoluted. It is very likely that a simple regexp is all that is needed but more details needed on the input and desired output.
