If the table is reoriented to have the documents in a single row, instead each in a column, it possible to iterate the table and place the answer another column.
doc = {document1, document2, document3, document4, document5, document6}';
data = table(doc);
for j = 1:size(doc)
for i = 1:size(issuer)
if (contains(doc{j}, issuer(i)))
issuerCol(j) = issuer(i);
break;
else
issuerCol(j) = "No match.";
end
end
end
data.issuer = issuerCol'
Executing the code then gives:
data =
6×2 table
doc issuer
