Hi,

I am writing a loop to construct individual row names for n-rows. The row ids will be characters and not numbers. Additionally, I need to make a one dimensional (row) matrix to write the variable name to the respective row through each loop. If I was writing numbers to the variable, e.g. vardata = zeros(rownum),then it would be no problem. But I cannot figure out how to create an empty matrix to write characters to an empty matrix. Additionally, will it matter if the size of the row id changes? For example, the size of the row id for the first 10 iterations will be something like abc_x_1 then for the next 90 iterations abc_x_12, and for the last two iterations abc_x_123.

Thanks,

Eric

在 MATLAB Online 中打开

You may want to use cell arrays.

for ii = 30:-1:1
  T{ii} = sprintf('abc_x_%i',ii);
end

Now look:

T{25}

Then if you really need a character array, let MATLAB take care of the spacing problems for you:

char(T)

I have one more issue. I now have a 3333x1 matrix consisting of characters, and I want to append that to the first column of a 3333x3333 matrix. I will end up with a 3333x3334 matrix. However, I cannot make a zeros matrix and write my two matrices to it because of the characters in the 3333x1 matrix. I've tried to horizontally concatenate the two matrices since the rows are the same length. That doesn't work. Is there a way to write both characters and numbers to a matrix?

Thanks
