I have a MxN matrix made of strings and I would like to convert it into a table because I need to have a timetable object in the end. My variable is a 720x2 strings, the first column contains the timestamp and the second contains a integer value.
This is an example of a row:
19/12/2017 00:00:00 116
I have tried using array2table and cell2table but I was not able to succeed.
I created a workaround, which is to write a file and then read it with readtable, but this way is definitely not immediate.
Thanks in advance, Edoardo

Hi Edoardo,
I believe you could accomplish the output you are describing with the following commands (with "matrix" being your matrix of strings):
>> Dates = matrix(:,1);
>> Data = matrix(:,2);
>> T = table(Dates,Data)

Hi Julia, thanks for your help. I am doing:
Dates = matrix(:,1 );
Data = matrix(:,2 );
T = table(datetime(Dates),Data);
TT = table2timetable(T);
But in the Data column in my timetable values are stored as strings, so with quotes, such as: "116" for instance. In this way I cannot perform some operations (such as averaging).
I am missing some trivial thing I cannot understand at the moment.
