How to concatenate cell array with blank

Hi, can anyone help me in concatenating below cell array
{'ob' '^b' [] '$b'}
so that output will be
{'ob' '^b' '$b'}
this is an dynamic output so i could not identify the exact position of blank. Is there any simple method available otherwise i have to use a loop to identify the blank.

 Accepted Answer

cs = {'ob' '^b' [] '$b'};
idx = cellfun('isempty',cs);
cs = cs(~idx);

Hi Oleg, if i have index=[1;0;0] and string={'mean' 'min' 'max'}. As per index my output should be 'mean', how to get this. string(~index) gives ''min'' and ''max''. what is the sign to be used for getting ''mean''

~ is the negation operator.
try in your command window:
~index
index
Then it should be clear what to use to get 'mean'.
