I want to concatenate (padding with spaces) the strings in a cell array {'a', 'b'}
to give a single string 'a b'
. How can I do this in MATLAB?
You can cheat a bit, by using the cell array as a set of argument to the sprintf function, then cleaning up the extra spaces with strtrim:
strs = {'a', 'b', 'c'};
strs_spaces = sprintf('%s ' ,strs{:});
trimmed = strtrim(strs_spaces);
Dirty, but I like it...
