text matrix to scaler matrix
Show older comments
Hello I have a matrix such that each cell is a string of numbers example ['10 11 12 13 ';'1 2 3']. I want to convert it into a matrix as[ 10 11 12 13;1 2 3 0]. This matrix contains a text file attachment.I used the function str2num for small matrices but My main work with matrices that have more than one million rows. thank you
kind regards

Are you sure it's {'10 11 12 13';'1 2 3'} and not {'10 11 12 13' ;'1 2 3 0'}?

v= {'10 11 12 13 ';'1 2 3 0'}
a=cellfun(@(x) cellfun(@str2double,regexp(x,'\d+','match')),v,'un',0);
out=cell2mat(a)

v= {'10 11 12 13 ';'1 2 3 '}
a=cellfun(@(x) cellfun(@str2double,regexp(x,'\d+','match')),v,'un',0);
n=max(cellfun(@numel,a));
out=cell2mat(cellfun(@(x) [x zeros(1,n-numel(x))],a,'un',0))
