yyyymmdd to mm-dd-yyyy

I unzipped NOAA summary of the day data in matlab and imported it as a table and as a matrix. The datetime is in yyyymmdd (20100801) format. How can I convert it to mm-dd-yyyy(08-01-2010)?

[per isakson]

"datetime" MM for month, not mm

>> t = datetime('20100801','InputFormat','yyyyMMdd')
t = 
   2010-08-01
>> t.Format = 'MM-dd-yyyy';
>> t
t = 
   08-01-2010

What if I have a time vector including hours: 2010121101 (2010, december, 11th 01:00:00: yyyymmddhh)?

@Elias: According to the documentation you need HH, not hh:

t = datetime('2010080123','InputFormat','yyyyMMddHH')
t.Format = 'MM-dd-yyyy';
t
t = 
   08-01-2010

In addition, how about using datestr function? Like:

t = datetime('2010080123','InputFormat','yyyyMMddHH');
str = datestr(t,'mm-dd-yyyy');

>> str

str =

'08-01-2010'
