Hi,

I have data as a 12487x1 string which row's cointains data separated by tabulators. I want to make this into a matrix, where the tabulators separate the columns in the matrix.

Thnaks in advance

Here's an example with comma separators instead of tabs, but it would work the same way.

 a=["1,2";"3,4"]

a = 2×1 string array
    "1,2"
    "3,4"

 c=arrayfun(@(z)strsplit(z,','),a,'uni',0);
 
 out=str2double(vertcat(c{:}))

out = 2×2

1 2 3 4
