strrep - Find and replace substring
Syntax
modifiedStr = strrep(origStr, oldSubstr,
newSubstr)
Description
modifiedStr = strrep(origStr, oldSubstr,
newSubstr) replaces all occurrences of the string oldSubstr within
string originalStr with the string newSubstr.
strrep(origStr, oldSubstr, newSubstr),
when any of the inputs is a cell array of strings, returns a cell
array the same size as str1, str2,
and str3 obtained by performing a strrep using
corresponding elements of the inputs. The inputs must all be the same
size (or any can be a scalar cell). Any one of the strings can also
be a character array with the right number of rows.
Examples
s1 = 'This is a good example.';
str = strrep(s1, 'good', 'great')
str =
This is a great example.
