MATLAB: Can I use mat2cell to divide a long column vector into several equal sized vectors

Question

Hello,

I see the use of mat2cell, e.g. a = mat2cell(b, [m n], [x y z]). This means I'll have to assign value to m and n.

Is there a way to use a variable instead of scalar to indicate size of cells in mat2cell? For example,

b = rand(100, 1); 
c = 5; 
a = mat2cell(b, [c]);

So that a results in 5 cells which is 20 by 1 vector each.

Thanks!

Yes:

a = mat2cell(b, fix(size(b,1)/c)*ones(1,c), 1);
