MATLAB: How to apply for loop for cell arrays

cell arrayfor loopmatrix

I have a matrix that I want dividing it to n matrices, say n = 2, and do some operations along their lengths. The second chain of ‘for’ loops does what I need when there is one matrix, as in the case of the parent matrix (a). But I can’t apply same procedure for the two cell arrays I have.
clear all
clc
a =(1000-0).*rand(10,2)+0 ;
[r,c] = size(a) ;
mina = [1 7] ;
maxa = [6 10] ;
b = cell(numel(mina),1) ;
for o = 1:numel(mina)
b{o} = a(mina(o): maxa(o),:);
end
max_a= zeros(r,c);
for i = 1:r
for j = 1:c
max_a(i,j) = max(a(1:i,j)) ;
end
end
This following lines was what I tried before but it doesn’t work.
for u = 1:numel(mina)
b2(1:maxa(u),:) = cell2mat(b(u)) ;
for i2 = mina(u):maxa(u)
for j2 = 1:c
max_a {u} = max(b2(1:i2,j2)) ;
end
end
end

a =(1000-0).*rand(10,2)+0
[r,c] = size(a)
mina = [1 7] ;
maxa = [6 10] ;
b = cell(numel(mina),1) ;
for o = 1:numel(mina)
b{o} = a(mina(o): maxa(o),:);
end
for k=1:numel(b)
bb=b{k};
[r,c]=size(bb);
max_a= zeros(r,c);
for i = 1:r
for j = 1:c
max_a(i,j) = max(a(1:i,j)) ;
end
end
max_b{k}=max_a
end
