Hi Sam, have you tried
M = cell2mat(C)

Yes, it doesn't work... "Error using cat Dimensions of matrices being concatenated are not consistent.
Error in cell2mat (line 86) m = cat(2,m{:});"

Your 5x4 cell consists of vectors of different size totaling up 676 + 501 + ... + 358 = way more than 20 elements. A 5x4 matrix by definition only contains 20 elements.
In other words, what you want is not possible or you've not stated what you want correctly.

can I convert the 5x4cell to a 5x4struct?

You can:
s = struct('somefieldname', C);
The cell is probably easier to manipulate though.
