Cellfun: check cell array for any value below 5, if yes return true

15 views (last 30 days)
Hi all, I have the following cell array
A = {4,5,6}
Is there a way to check whether any element is below 5 and return true if yes?
Been searching around but couldn't find any answers.
Cheers

This would be much easier to solve if you used a normal numeric array:
A = [4,5,6];
any(A<5)
This is essentially what Andrei Bobrov's second solution does: converts the cell array to a numeric array, then does the comparison.

any(cellfun(@(x)x < 5,A))
or
any([A{:}] < 5)
