No big deal, but you've got to start...the basics with plenty of examples for specifically the problem you're asking about are at the <following top level link>; the most pertinent specific functions will undoubtedly be readtable and writetable

% Read data from input Excel file
[data, headers] = xlsread('input_file.xlsx');
% Manipulate the data as required
new_data = data + 1;
% Write the manipulated data to output Excel file
xlswrite('output_file.xlsx', [headers; num2cell(new_data)]);

Hi Aiman,
I understand that you are trying to fetch the data from an excel file and then store it into another excel file.
To fetch the data from the input Excel file into a table, use the “readtable” function.
- To read the data from a sheet named “sheet1” in an Excel file named “in.xlsx”, use the following command.
inTab=readtable('in.xlsx','Sheet','Sheet1');
Here, “inTab” contains the data from the Sheet in the form of a MATLAB table.
For more information regarding “readtable” function, refer the following link:
To write the data to another Excel file, use the “writetable” function.
- To write the data to a sheet named “sheet1” in a new excel file named “out.xlsx”, use the following command.
writetable(inTab,'out.xlsx','Sheet','Sheet1');
For more information regarding “writetable” function, refer the following link:
I hope this answer will be helpful.

all_cures = ["fusarium_cure1", "fusarium_cure2", "bacterial_cure1", "bacterial_cure2"]
all_diseases = ["Fusarium wilt"; "Fusarium wilt"; "Bacterial Blight"; "Bacterial Blight"]
Notice the first one, the one you used commas for, is one single row with four columns
Notice the second one, the one you used semi-colons for, is one single column with four rows.
table() requires that all the variables have the same number of rows .
So be consistent: either use commans for both arrays, or use semi-colons for both arrays.
