MATLAB: Converting logical to cell array

Question

My code works with data extracted by a different code. Here it is:

for i=1:length(TrialTimestamps) %loop through trials

start1=TrialTimestamps(i);finish1=LightOnTimestamps(i); %trial onset to light on

temp1=(start1<=PokeTimestamps)&(PokeTimestamps<=finish1);% counts the nose pokes in this epoch

if temp1 == 0

temp1(i) = 0;

end

numpokes1(1,i)=temp1;

end

This is the error I receive: Unable to perform assignment because the size of the left side is 1-by-1 and the size of the right side is 61-by-1.

If I don't have numpokes, then temp1 only has logical, which cannot be used by the rest of the code. I need it to be in cell. I don't know how to turn it into a cell, but also preserve the entirety of the data.

Answer 1

I do not understand if ‘PokeTimeStamps’ changes its size (only that it appeasrs to be a column vector), or for that matter, what your code is doing.

One possibility:

numpokes1{:,i}=temp1;

That puts it in the column of cell array ‘numpokes’.

See if that does what you want.
