C = convertStringToCharArgs(S)
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| S | Input string scalar or string array. If S is a string scalar, the output C is a character vector. If S is a string array, C is returned as a cell array of character vectors. |
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| C | Character vector (for scalar string input) or cell array of character vectors (for string arrays). If the input was not a string, C is the unmodified input. |
convertStringToCharArgs converts either a cell array of string values or a string array into a cell array of character vectors.
To convert a single string scalar to a character vector, use the char function instead.
This conversion is required because some functions (example set or get) currently do not accept string inputs.
% Scalar string -> char vector
C = convertStringToCharArgs("Nelson")
% String array -> cell array of char vectors
