MATLAB: How to convert a matrix of cell to type double.

cell2matconvert cell to type doubledoublematrixnum2str

Hello Friends,
I have a cell matrix X of size NxD as follows:
X = [5.1000]    [3.5000]    [1.4000]    [0.2000]    'sunday'
    [4.9000]    [     3]    [1.4000]    [0.2000]    'sunday'
    [4.7000]    [3.2000]    [1.3000]    [0.2000]    'monday'
    [4.6000]    [3.1000]    [1.5000]    [0.2000]    'tuesday'
    [     5]    [3.6000]    [1.4000]    [0.2000]    'tuesday'
    [5.4000]    [3.9000]    [1.7000]    [0.4000]    'sunday'
I want to convert it to type double. The last labeled column could be either type 'text' or 'numeric'.
I will appreciate any advise!

if( isnumeric(X{1,end}) )
    result = cell2mat(X);
else
    result = cell2mat(X(:,1:end-1));
end
