strvcat

Vertical concatenation of strings

Syntax

• S = strvcat(t1,t2,t3,...)
  

Description

S = strvcat(t1,t2,t3,...) forms the character array S containing the text strings (or string matrices) t1,t2,t3,... as rows. Spaces are appended to each string as necessary to form a valid matrix. Empty arguments are ignored.

Remarks

If each text parameter, ti, is itself a character array, strvcat appends them vertically to create arbitrarily large string matrices.

Examples

The command strvcat('Hello','Yes') is the same as ['Hello';'Yes '], except that strvcat performs the padding automatically.

• t1 = 'first';t2 = 'string';t3 = 'matrix';t4 = 'second';
  
  S1 = strvcat(t1,t2,t3)            S2 = strvcat(t4,t2,t3)
  
  S1 =                              S2 =
                                    
  first                             second
  string                            string
  matrix                            matrix
  
  S3 = strvcat(S1,S2)
  
  S3 =
  first
  string 
  matrix
  second
  string 
  matrix
