Hi,
I have a cell array of dates that have this format: '08/28/01' '03/01/97' etc.. How can I convert them to a double matlab number date? where 08/28/01 refers to the 28th of august 2001 and 03/01/97 refers ti the first of march 1997

I usually always write the format (since I am european):
datenum('08/09/01','mm/dd/yy')

This is probably not a bad practice to use in general. Thanks Oleg!
