Hi,

how can i create a function that creates a cell array of number array 1:n, so the result is a cell array of string values.

so for example if i call that function s=f(1:10), it give me:

s = {'1','2','3','4','5','6','7','8','9','10'}

thanks so much!

This is dead easy if you are happy using the newish string type instead of char vectors:

s = string(1:10)

You can convert that to a cell array of char vectors, but you may as well continue using strings as they're easier to work with.

s = cellstr(string(1:10)) %if a cell array of char vector is really desired

super, thanks!

this was by far the easiest and most effective solution.

great answer! solved my problem as well, thanks
