MATLAB: Can I assign a single value to multiple elements of a cell array without a loop

Question

For example, I have an array that looks like

myArray = 
    [3]    []    [3]    []

I'd like to fill out the empty elements of myArray with zeros, but, obviously, the following doesn't work:

myArray{find(cellfun(@isempty,myArray))} = 0

Obviously, I could write a loop, but there has to be a better way!

Thanks for any suggestions!

Answer 1

You almost had the syntax right:

myArray(find(cellfun(@isempty,myArray))) = {0}

Or you can just use logical indexing and skip the find:

myArray(cellfun(@isempty,myArray)) = {0}
