Hi,

I have a cell array that contains cells in which there are numerical arrays with 9 columns. In that numerical array the columns 1-3 are x, y, and z coordinates of point A. The columns 4-6 are x, y, and z coordinates of point B. And the columns 7-9 are x, y, and z coordinates of point C.

I wrote this code to measure the distances between point C and A.

for i = 1:numel(pre_xyz)
    right_hand{i} = sqrt((pre_xyz{i}(:,7)-pre_xyz{i}(:,1)).^2 + (pre_xyz{i}(:,8)-pre_xyz{i}(:,2)).^2 + (pre_xyz{i}(:,9)-pre_xyz{i}(:,3)).^2);
end

But I get this error:

Operator '-' is not supported for operands of type 'cell'.

What is the easiest fix for this?

Thanks!

No you do not. You have a cell array that contains cell arrays.

for i = 1:numel(pre_xyz)
    this_pre = cell2mat(pre_xyz{i});
    right_hand{i} = sqrt((this_pre(:,7)-this_pre(:,1)).^2 + (this_pre(:,8)-this_pre(:,2)).^2 + (this_pre(:,9)-this_pre(:,3)).^2);
