concatenating array using cellstr and repmat

Hi All,

I have the following code

str = cellstr(char('This','Orthis'));
x = round(rand(10,1))+1;
output = [repmat('some text ',10,1) str{x}]

I want the output to look like:

output = 

some text OrThis
some text This
some text This
etc..

where the last word in each row is selected by str{x}. This is not working, as the str{x} part of the concatenation is not generating the appropriate array. Any suggestions? Thanks!

str = cellstr(char('This','Orthis'))
x = round(rand(10,1))+1 
output = [repmat('some text ',10,1) char(str(x))]

That did it! Thanks!
