MATLAB: How to adress string within cell array

Question

I have a cell T =

cell
    {5×1 cell}

and would like to extract the last item ('100.7') in this cell and convert to number (str2num) T{:}

ans =

5×1 cell array
    '#'
    'Ambient'
    'pressure'
    ':'
    '100.700'

Any tips?

Answer 1

You have a 1x1 cell containing a 5x1 cell, so all you need is this:

str2double(T{1}{5})
