String operations on dynamic dataset

Hi everyone,
Number of machines activated and hence the duration timestamp, varies each day so the dataset dimention is dynamic.
I am trying to extract the dataset for each machine. Cant get my extractBetwen () to work.
w=[ "Mac_A"
"1 9:53.3"
"2 9:23.5"
"3 2:16.2"
"4 2:45.6"
"5 12:01.2"
"Mac_B"
"1 23:56.5"
"2 28:12.6"
"3 15:34.1"
"4 19:23.0"
"5 1:38.4"
"Mac_C"
"1 11:35.6"]
% ..
% many more machines and thier datasets
l=length(w(strlength(w)==5)) % counts how many machines
for e=1: length(w)
start = w(strlength(w)==5)
stop = w(strlength(w)<8)
itsdata(data(l),:) = extractBetween(w,start,stop) % cant get this to work.
end
expected output is vectors which are the datasets of the machines.
["1 9:53.3,2 9:23.5,3 2:16.2,4 2:45.6,5 12:01.2"]
["1 23:56.5 , 2 28:12.6,3 15:34.1,4 19:23.0,5 1:38.4"]
["1 11:35.6"]
..
.. %more vectors

"3 15:34.1"
"4 19:23.0"
"51:38.4"
"Mac_C"
"1 11:35.6"];
Sep = [find(startsWith(w, 'Mac_')); numel(w) + 1];
n = numel(Sep) - 1;
itsdata = strings(n, 1);
for k = 1:n
itsdata(k) = [w{Sep(k)+1:Sep(k+1)-1}];
end
The command extractBetween() cuts out a piece of a string, not an array of strings between indices.

Hi Jan, returns the last extraction only i.e. For Mac_C. it doesnt store the other datasets. If the loop can output an array (rather than vector as I ask) where each row is the string dataset of each machine, I could work with that too. expected output would look like:
itsdata =
"1 9:53.3,2 9:23.5,3 2:16.2,4 2:45.6,5 12:01.2"
"1 23:56.5 , 2 28:12.6,3 15:34.1,4 19:23.0,5 1:38.4"
"1 11:35.6"
...
I had a typo in my code. See above: "(k)" inserted to assign the k.th string of itsdata instead of overwriting it.

Inside the loop, getting "Unable to perform assignment because the indices on the left side are not compatible with the size of the right side." error.
Please try it again with the current code. I do not get the error message you have posted.
Expected output is with a comma sparator:
"1 9:53.3,2 9:23.5,3 2:16.2,4 2:45.6,5 12:01.2"
the code returns is
1 9:53.32 9:23.53 2:16.24 2:45.65 12:01.2
i.e the first value should be 1 9:53.3, but it has combined the serial no. 2 to it and results in 1 9:53.32.
Hence, modified the original dataset by adding a "," at the end of each row.
Works but crude. Could you suggest another way to obtain the Expected output as requested?
Can you also explain this command : Sep = [find(startsWith(w, 'Mac_')); numel(w) + 1]
w=[ "Mac_A"
"1 9:53.3"
"2 9:23.5"
"3 2:16.2"
"4 2:45.6"
"5 12:01.2"
"Mac_B"
"1 23:56.5"
"2 28:12.6"
"3 15:34.1"
"4 19:23.0"
"5 1:38.4"
"Mac_C"
"1 11:35.6"];
w= w+ "," % i added this.
Sep = [find(startsWith(w, 'Mac_')); numel(w) + 1]
n = numel(Sep) - 1;
itsdata = strings(n, 1);
for k = 1:n
itsdata(k) = [w{Sep(k)+1:Sep(k+1)-1} ];
end
itsdata
w=[ "Mac_A"; "1 9:53.3"; "2 9:23.5"; "3 2:16.2"; ...
"4 2:45.6"; "5 12:01.2"; "Mac_B"; "1 23:56.5"; ...
"2 28:12.6"; "3 15:34.1"; "4 19:23.0"; "5 1:38.4"; ...
"Mac_C"; "1 11:35.6"];
Sep = [find(startsWith(w, 'Mac_')); numel(w) + 1]
n = numel(Sep) - 1;
itsdata = strings(n, 1);
for k = 1:n
itsdata(k) = join(w(Sep(k)+1:Sep(k+1)-1), ',');
end
itsdata

Jan, Thank you so very much!
This expresion : Sep = [find(startsWith(w, 'Mac_')); numel(w) + 1], is complex so broke it into its elements and echoed each output. I understand that logic as well now. Thank you again for your time.
