How to align names with the numbers in a matrix?

Hello!

I have to put heading row over the data matrix so I used the following code:

a=[12 13 14];
b={'a'; 'b'; 'c';};
c=[char(b)'; num2str(a)]

it gives me:

C= abc
   12  13  14

But I want to align the first row over the second one.

required output:

C= a   b   c
   12  13  14

Can't you use a table - using the entries in b as the VariableNames and a as the row data

This is what I am looking for.

I am confused about how to use it for my case @David Fletcher.

Name={'a' 'b' 'c' 'd' 'e' 'f' 'g' 'h' 'i' 'j' 'k' };
Data=[ 1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9 10 11
      12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22
      23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33];

Name is 1x11 array

Data is 3x11

I can assign variables as

a=Data(:,1)....

but thats a lengthy process and my matrix size can vary.

How can I use table function so that I have "Name" as heading row of table and "Data" matrix as its value.

Required output:

        a           b         c         d       ......
    __________    ______    ______    ______    ______
        1           2         3         4       ......
       12          13        14        15       ......
       23          24        25        26       ......

So, finally I found what I was looking for

Name={'a' 'b' 'c' 'd' 'e' 'f' 'g' 'h' 'i' 'j' 'k' };
Data=[ 1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9 10 11; 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22; 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33];
T=struct2table(cell2struct(num2cell(Data,1),Name,2));

Thanks :)

much simpler:

T = array2table(Data,'VariableNames',Name)

a=[12 13 14];
b={'a'; 'b'; 'c';};

fprintf('%5s %5s %5s\n', b{:}); fprintf('%5d %5d %5d\n', a);

    a     b     c
   12    13    14

@Walter Roberson If I have huge data this method messes up and made the output hard to read :(.

Is there another method by which "a" and "b" can be included in same array or matrix?
