| Description |
SHOWCELLS was inspired by the Dyalog APL display of boxed variables. It is intended to provide a clear visual display of the contents of a cell array.
If you have a cell array c = {1:4}, MATLAB normally shows this as [1x4 double], hiding the actual contents of the array. SHOWCELLS shows the contents, as well as providing a visualization of the shape and nesting of cell arrays.
SHOWCELLS can return a char array of the rendering as well. For arrays with three or more dimensions, the representation is saved as a cell array of char matrices.

| Updates |
| 28 Jan 2013 |
Updated screenshot to show traditional MATLAB view of cells along with SHOWCELLS output. Tiny tweaks to source code spacing and punctuation, no functional changes. |
| 29 Jan 2013 |
Added support for N-dimensional cell arrays; reduced memory usage; added indentation to make consistent with MATLAB's display of variables. |
| 31 Jan 2013 |
Replaced ISMATRIX with test for NDIMS > 2. This should allow older versions of MATLAB to run SHOWCELLS. |
