MATLAB: Swapping Letters Using Regular Expression

Question

I want to take a character array, find the first vowel and move it to the end. Some examples

• 'Fred' –> 'Frde'
• 'Replace' –> 'Rplacee'
• 'Cannot' –> 'Cnnota'

Is there a regular expression that will accomplish this with a single call to regexp?

Thank you

Answer 1

>> text = {'Fred', 'Replace', 'Cannot'};
>> regexprep(text, '([^aeiou]*)([aeiou])(.*)', '$1$3$2')
ans =
  1×3 cell array
    {'Frde'}    {'Rplacee'}    {'Cnnota'}
