Finding specific phrases within a cell array (1)

2 次查看(过去 30 天)
Greetings,
I am working with a total of nine(9) text strings within nine(9) cell ( {9x1} )
and I am trying to take specific sentences of the text strings.
For example, one text string says:
EAST WINDS 15 TO 20 KNOTS. SEAS 4 TO 6 FEET.
I am trying to divide these two sentences in two structured variables under the name Today.
Today.Winds = EAST WINDS 15 TO 20 KNOTS
Today.Waves = SEAS 4 TO 6 FEET
The 9 different strings represents the 7 days of the week, plus today and night forecast, resulting in 9 different strings
The other strings outputs would go like this:
Tonight.Winds = EAST NORTHEAST WINDS 10 TO 14 KNOTS
Tonight.Waves = SEAS 3 TO 5 FEET
Monday.Winds = EAST WINDS 14 TO 19 KNOTS
Monday.Waves = SEAS 4 TO 6 FEET
I was thinking of telling MATLAB to break when he reaches the first dot and imprint the string as Today.wind, then continue till the next dot, break and imprint it as Today.waves.
How can I do this?
Thank you for your time.

Please stop posting multiple questions about one problem. What should happen with the thread http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/43667-finding-specific-phrases-within-a-cell-array now? Such duplicate questions confuse the readers. It is better to add new information by editing the original question and to mark changes by adding the key "[EDITED]".

See 'strtok' as one possible solutions. For example:
celltxt{1} = 'EAST WINDS 15 TO 20 KNOTS. SEAS 4 TO 6 FEET.';
[tok, rem] = strtok(celltxt{1}, '.');
Tonight.Winds = tok;
Tonight.Waves = rem(3:end-1); % removing first two and last character

Well Juan, that would all depend on how you are storing the text. Are you using a cell array?
