cellstr

(Not Recommended) Create cell array of character vectors from dataset array

The dataset data type is not recommended. To work with heterogeneous data, use the MATLAB® table data type instead. See MATLAB table documentation for more information.

Syntax

B = cellstr(A)
B = cellstr(A,VARS)

Description

B = cellstr(A) returns the contents of the dataset A, converted to a cell array of character vectors. The variables in the dataset must support the conversion and must have compatible sizes.

B = cellstr(A,VARS) returns the contents of the dataset variables specified by VARS. VARS is a positive integer, a vector of positive integers, a character vector, a string array, a cell array of character vectors, or a logical vector.
