Hi! Unfortunately, MATLAB is not allowing me to convert this series of strings of date to a datetime series. Can anyone please help?
D = ['2003/06/24'
'2003/07/10'
'2003/07/10'
'2003/07/10'
'2003/07/18'
'2003/07/26'
'2003/08/03'
'2003/08/11'
'2003/08/19'
'2003/08/27'];
Any feedback will be greatly appreciated!

Can you show the command you're using to try to perform this conversion and describe what "not allowing" means in this context?
  • Do you receive warning and/or error messages? If so the full and exact text of those messages (all the text displayed in orange and/or red in the Command Window) may be useful in determining what's going on and how to avoid the warning and/or error.
  • Does it do something different than what you expected? If so, what did it do and what did you expect it to do?
  • Did MATLAB crash? If so please send the crash log file (with a description of what you were running or doing in MATLAB when the crash occured) to Technical Support so we can investigate.

Thank you so much! It works. The reason why it wasn't working the previous time is -- all the strings I showed here were a column of a table. So, I first used the function table2array, and then used Stephen's code!

Ran in:
D = ['2003/06/24'
'2003/07/10'
'2003/07/10'
'2003/07/10'
'2003/07/18'
'2003/07/26'
'2003/08/03'
'2003/08/11'
'2003/08/19'
'2003/08/27'];
T = datetime(D, 'inputformat','u/M/d')
T = 10×1 datetime array

"So, I first used the function table2array.."
It is simpler and more efficient to use basic indexing:
