str2mat

Purpose

Form string matrix from individual strings.

Synopsis

S = str2mat('t1','t2','t3',...)

Description

S = str2mat('t1','t2','t3',...) forms the matrix S containing the text strings t1, t2, t3, etc. as rows. str2mat automatically pads each string with spaces in order to form a valid matrix. Up to 11 text strings can be used to form S. In addition, each text parameter, tn, can itself be a string matrix. This allows the creation of arbitrarily large string matrices.

Examples

Form a string matrix from the strings 'One', 'Twenty', and 'Thirty-six':

s = str2mat('One','Twenty','Thirty-six')
          
s = 
    One
    Twenty
    Thirty-six
