MATLAB: Split string with successive delimiters

strplit

Hi,
I have a string, A = 'matlab,2016,b,,,'
I am trying to extract the characters between the commas using strsplit. however, at the end of the string there are no space between the comma delimiters, and they get grouped as one cell, instead of empty cell.
How can split the string, with the comma as the delimiter, and no space between successive delimiters being treated as a blank cell?
thanks!
s

>> A = 'matlab,2016,b,,,'
A =
    'matlab,2016,b,,,'
>> regexp(A,',','split')
ans =
  1×6 cell array
    'matlab'    '2016'    'b'    ''    ''    ''
