i have this cell x (20*1) (i have attached). i just want convert this in to simple matrix and split the data whereever there is a space.
so here i will get the 20*20 matrix !
i tried splitting the each string with single space in a loop but it seems like sometimes there are two spaces, sometimes 3 and sometimes only 1. i dont get any idea how to split the stiring and make a simple 20*20 matrix out of it !
segments1 = regexp(x{1,1}{i,1},' ','split')
i hope you understand the question !

No need of reguler expressions here
fun = @str2num;
segments1 = cell2mat(cellfun(fun, x, 'UniformOutput', false));
Produce 20x20 matrix as you require

A = cell2mat(cellfun(@str2num,x,'UniformOutput',false))
