Very simple logical question

Hello all

I want to generate the set of numbers such that each number is having the same number of digits.

Something like this: 0001,0002,0003,.....0010,0011,0012,.....0100,0101,0102.....,0998,0999,1000

can anyone please help me with this?

Regards

Do they have to be of any numerical type, or is it ok to have them as a char vector?

Hi....either double or char

[Patrik Ek]

Ok I do not think char is the only possiblility, that is why I asked. I would recommend this solution by Andrei Bobrov.

Answer 1

arrayfun(@(x)sprintf('%04d',x),1:1000,'un',0);

or

reshape(sprintf('%04d',1:1000),4,[])'

Answer 2

A = cell(1,1000);

for k = 1:1000
A{k} = sprintf('%04d',k);
end
