MATLAB/OCTAVE Extracting elements from different sized vectors in a cell array

Question

I have a simple question but I can\'t figure it out or find it anywhere. I have a cell array where c{1} is a vector and c{2} is a vector but of different lengths, up to c{i

Answer 1

This depends on whether the vectors in c are row or column vectors. But usually the fastest and most compact ways are:

c={[1 2 3], [4 5 6 7 8], [9 10]}
cell2mat(c)
cat(2, c{:})

or

c={[1 2 3]', [4 5 6 7 8]', [9 10]'}
% cell2mat(c) % Doesn't work.
cat(1, c{:})

so personally, I prefer cat.
