Hello folks,
Quick question. I need to dynamically allocate variables from a cell array using a string value within the cell.. I know it is not good practice to use eval but my application requires me to do this. The expression I require to be evaluated is:
eval(sprintf('%s = ''%s''',cell2mat(stocks(i,1)),cell2mat(C(1,k)))) - which has the output: AAVL = 300
However I need the output: AAVL(j,k) = 300
I am having trouble adding indices..
When I try this:
eval(sprintf('%s(%d,%d) = ''%s''',cell2mat(stocks(i,1)),j,k,cell2mat(C(1,k))))
which gives an error: Assignment has more non-singleton rhs dimensions than non-singleton subscripts
note:
cell2mat(stocks(i,1)) % yields the AAVL string
cell2mat(C(1,k))) % yields the value 300 which was initially a string
Any help would be much appreciated!
