%% Clone String Array Size from Existing Array
% Create an array of empty strings that is the same size as an existing array.

A = [1 2 3; 4 5 6];
sz = size(A);
str = strings(sz)

%
% It is a common pattern to combine the previous two lines of code into a single line:

str = strings(size(A));

% You can use strings to preallocate the space required for a large string array.
