MATLAB: Create variable named from a cell

Question

How do I generate a variable of empty matrix, which is named after the values in one of the cell of imported text in another variable.

E.g I import data file with

A {'DT140906' 'x'};

Now I want to create a varible that will automatically take the name 'DT140906' or what ever the name is in A.

Answer 1

A = {'DT140906' 'x'};
eval([A{1},' = {}'])
