Convert Strings into vectors of binary numbers

I need to convert utterance strings into vectors where each dimension of the vector represents a unique word, while reading the script from an m.file. So for example if I have, out='hello' 'my' 'name' 'is' 'sam'. I want a vector with binary numbers where hello is true and everything else is false.
Solution would be output=[1,0,0,0] How can I do this? Here is what I have so far
fid=fopen('sw4325.m')
>> firstline=fgets(fid);
>> sprintf(firstline);
>> splitstring=textscan(ans, '%s');
>> out=splitstring{:};

I do not get it. Do you want STRCMP?
str = {'hello' 'my' 'name' 'is' 'sam'};
match = strcmp('hello', str);

Sorry, I do not understand which data are strings and which are cell strings. Using ans directly is prone to errors. Better split the string explicitly, e.g. out = regexp(firstline, ' ', 'split'). And then please explain again the type of the inputs. Either strcmp or ismember should solve the problem.
