A cell array has following character data

A{1,1}=[' '] [' '] ['Smith'] [' '] ; ['False'] [' '] [' '] [' '] ; [' '] [' '] [' '] ['Allen'] ;

I want to identify data in each row and write in one column, so as to get output

A{1,1} = ['Smith'] ; ['False'] ; ['Allen'];

Thanks

The shown code is not valid Matlab, such that I guess, you mean this:

A = {' ', ' ', 'Smith', ' ' ; ...
     'False', ' ',' ', ' ' ; ...
     ' ', ' ', ' ', 'Allen'};

If this is correct, then:

B = A(~strcmp(A, ' '))

Perhaps the cell string is nested, then:

AA = A{1};
B  = AA(~strcmp(AA, ' '));

On demand use reshape or B = B(:) to change the shape.

PS. Prefer to post the data such that the readers can reproduce them by a copy&paste to the command window.
