saving and retrieving string data in matlab

Question

Hi can any one help me in dealing with strings in MATLAB. For example, the string

A = \'A good looking boy\'

how can we store these individual

Answer 1

As found here, you could use

>> A = 'A good looking boy';
>> C = regexp(A,'[A-z]*', 'match')
C = 
    'A'    'good'    'looking'    'boy'

so that

>> C{1}
ans = 
    A

>> C{4}
ans = 
    boy

>> [C{:}]
ans =
    Agoodlookingboy
