How to compare two different cell arrays ?

399 次查看(过去 30 天)
I would like to know if there is any way by which I can compare all the elements and remove the matched elements if not needed.
eg : a = the, he, hate
b = he, hate
so c should be equal to the.
PS: I have tried string comparision method but, unfortunately they eliminate the 'he' from 'the' thus giving the output as only 't'.
Thank you, vish

The SETDIFF function does what you want. It will give you the values in one set (i.e. cell array) that are not present in another set:
>> a = {'the', 'he', 'hate'};
>> b = {'he', 'hate'};
>> c = setdiff(a,b)
c =
'the'

Suppose I have the following:
a = { 'the', 'he', 'hate'}
b = { 'he', 'hate', 'she' }
And I want to obtain something like the following:
c = 'the'
d = 'she'
Is it possible with
setdiff
?

a = {'the', 'he', 'hate'};
b = {'he', 'hate'};
ismember(a,b)

What if I have two cell arrays with each array element continuing some structure with a combination of real elements and strings. i.e. A = {struct1,struct2,...} B = {struct1,struct2,...} here each struct can be of the type : structX.member1= ... (string/number) structX.member2= ... (string/number) ... Is there a way to compare the two cel arrays. dismember or setdiff only looks for strings so it won't work. Thanks Remus

Stephen Cobeldick thanks bro,but in my case i have a cell array inside another cell array i.e cell 1 627*1 (row=627 and col=1) and inside each row (from 1 to 627 ) i have 1*3 cell! .
