One of the issues you will face here is that what is stored in the cell array p is numeric data and concatenation of numeric data with character arrays will convert the numeric value to its ASCII representation.
>> A = [2323,'hello']
A =
ओhello
This is not what you are looking for. So, you need to convert the number to a character array using num2str:
>> A = [num2str(2323),'hello']
A =
2323hello
Now if this data is stored in cells we can simply concatenate the contents (which are the char arrays):
p = {2323}; % Brackets around {} are not necessary.
k = {'hello'};
A = {[num2str(p{:}),k{:}]}; % Convert num to a string, concatenate, place back in cell
If we were then to presume that these variables had a larger (but equal) size:
p = {2323;3434}
k = {'hello';'goodbye'}
for n = 1:length(p)
A(n) = {[num2str(p{n,1}),k{n,1}]};
end
disp(A)
