Convert table to cell array
Create a table, T, with five rows and three variables.
T = table(categorical({'M';'M';'F';'F';'F'}),[38;43;38;40;49],...
[124 93;109 77; 125 83; 117 75; 122 80],...
'VariableNames',{'Gender' 'Age' 'BloodPressure'},...
'RowNames',{'Smith' 'Johnson' 'Williams' 'Jones' 'Brown'})T=5×3 table
Gender Age BloodPressure
______ ___ _____________
Smith M 38 124 93
Johnson M 43 109 77
Williams F 38 125 83
Jones F 40 117 75
Brown F 49 122 80
Convert T to a cell array.
C = table2cell(T)
C=5×3 cell array
{[M]} {[38]} {1x2 double}
{[M]} {[43]} {1x2 double}
{[F]} {[38]} {1x2 double}
{[F]} {[40]} {1x2 double}
{[F]} {[49]} {1x2 double}
C is a 5-by-3 cell array.
Vertically concatenate the table property, T.Properties.VariableNames, with C to include column headings for the cell array.
[T.Properties.VariableNames;C]
ans=6×3 cell array
{'Gender'} {'Age'} {'BloodPressure'}
{[M ]} {[ 38]} {1x2 double }
{[M ]} {[ 43]} {1x2 double }
{[F ]} {[ 38]} {1x2 double }
{[F ]} {[ 40]} {1x2 double }
{[F ]} {[ 49]} {1x2 double }
T.Properties.VariableNames is a cell array of character vectors.
T — Input tableInput table, specified as a table.
If T is an m-byn table,
then C is an m-by-n cell
array.
