MATLAB: How to split letters in a word into an array

MATLABstring

Ex: In the word 'HELLO', extract the letters 'H' 'E' 'L' 'L' 'O'

Best Answer

The string 'Hello' consists of single characters already:

str = 'Hello';
for k = 1:length(str)
  disp(str(k))
end

So please explain the wanted type and dimensions of the output. 'H' 'E' 'L' 'L' 'O' is not clear enough.

MATLAB: Regexprep() skip first occurrence

How about using regexp to find the position of spaces, and delete 2nd~Nth spaces? Like:

mystring = 'this is my string';
pos = regexp(mystring,'\s');
mystring(pos(2:end)) = [];

MATLAB: I have a matrix that contains strings and i have to find words in it.

Hi,

You can use strfind function to determine the presence of elements in you char array.

matrix = ['a','b','d','f';
          'c','t','a','g';
          'f','a','n','p';
           'd','b','a','b'];
word = 'ab';
for i=1:length(matrix)
    str = matrix(i,:);
    idxL2R = strfind(str,word);
    idxR2L = strfind(str,flip(word));
    result = ['for string = ',str,' indexL2R while searching for word = ',word,
             ' is = ',int2str(idxL2R), ' indexR2L is = ', int2str(idxR2L)];
    disp(result);
end
