MATLAB: Dealing with Character arrays

Question

Hello everyone!

I have 3 (Date, Time, Pred) one-column character arrays and i want to create a new array with 3 columns. 1st column —> Date, 2nd column —> Time and 3rd Column —> Pred. but i can't figure how to do that. Can anyone help me?

Thanks in advance,

Giorgos

You probably need a cell array, especially if all the strings are not guaranteed to be of the same size.

 col1 = char(reshape(32:127, 32, 3)'); %Some character array
 col2 = col1;
 col3 = col2;
 %What you could use
 your_cell_array = [cellstr(col1),cellstr(col2),cellstr(col3)];
