I have a cell array of strings and I want to match substrings to produce a boolean vector to then extract the elements of interest.
I want strfind to behave like strcmp.
t = {'abcde','bcde','abc','ac'};
i = strcmp(t,'bcde')
0 1 0 0
for example - for 'bc', I want:
1 1 1 0
but using strfind, I get :
i = strfind(t,'bc')
[2] [1] [2] []
then:
~isempty(i)
1
or:
i==[]
but this returns: 'Undefined function 'eq' for input arguments of type 'cell'.'
I think cellfun() with strfind() and isempty() might work but I'm confused how to use it.
v= cellfun(@(x) strfind(t,'bc'), t, 'UniformOutput', false)
v =
{1x4 cell} {1x4 cell} {1x4 cell} {1x4 cell}
v{1}
ans =
[2] [1] [2] []
I want boolean array: [1 1 1 0]

>> t = {'abcde','bcde','abc','ac'};
>> ~cellfun(@isempty,strfind(t,'bc'))
ans =
1 1 1 0

Here is one way:
cellfun(@(x)not(isempty(x)),strfind(t,'bc'))

Discovered a much cleaner way:
contains(t,'bc');
