I have a column in a table with 3 wine types defined as character values "1", "2" and "3". I want to replace these values with "French", "Spanish" and "Italian" respectively. I am treating the column as an array of strings and using the tried and trusted combination of a for loop and if/elseif ladder to select and replace each of the string values in the table. Howver, when I run this in the command window, I get an error saying 'Unable to perform assignment because the left and right sides have a different number of elements' . My code is listed below and the array I am trying run it on is attached.
for i = 1:size(Typ)
if((Typ(i))=="1")
Typ(i)="French"
elseif((Typ(i))=="2")
Typ(i)="Spanish"
elseif((Typ(i))=="3")
Typ(i)="Italian"
else
end
end
