MATLAB: How can i convert the content of a character array to a variable name

convert character to variable

Hi,

I have a character variable called xx=Hello.

I want to convert that xx variable to a matrix name variable named Hello.

How can I do this?

Generally, you should not do what you are trying to do. One possible solution is to use a struct.

xx='Helo';
myStruct.(xx)=magic(5);

Hi xosro,

I'm not sure if this is what you want, but

names = {A(1:2).name}

collects the names into a cell array (or {A.names} if you want all).

% Create String
MyStr = 'abcd';
% Change later
MyStr = 'lmnopqrst';
