Error using cell/ismem​ber>cellis​memberR201​2a error

1 view (last 30 days)
% belows came from command window not codes,
txt1 =
'p4004'
[4005]
[4007]
[4009]
[4015]
[4020]
[4031]
[4037]
[4041]
[4151]
cc =
'p4004'
Name Size Bytes Class Attributes
txt1 10x1 1202 cell global
cc 1x1 122 cell global
%when I perform this code
[row,col] = ismember(txt1,cc)
%it gives Error using cell/ismember>cellismemberR2012a error. I didn't understand what is wrong, txt1 and cc are cells. When I create txt1 and cc matrixes in workspace like txt1=[{'p4004'},{'4005'},{'4007'},{'4009'}]..... it works without any error.

AFAIK and understand the documentation: ismember doesn't take a cell array, which contains different types of data. In your case double and string.

You have to make txt1 a cell array of strings.
You already know that
txt1=[{'p4004'},{'4005'},{'4007'},{'4009'}];
is one way to make such an array. This creates the same result a bit simpler
txt1={'p4004','4005','4007','4009'};
How did you create
txt1 =
'p4004'
[4005]
[4007]
...
