Find value(string) in specific line

Hi, I attached example like below. And I want to get a value in #cup. In Example, It gonna be 332.

a=12345

apple= 3333

sky=2412

#cup = 332

#water=827

#paper=099

I have many data so I can't get these values by click respectively .

Additionaly, #cup is in different line by data. So i can't find the value if I use find(example(4,:))

Can I get values in #cup using matlab?

T = readtable('https://in.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/uploaded_files/1112505/Example.txt') ;
idx = contains(T.(1),'cup') ;
T(idx,:)

ans = 1×2 table
      Var1      Var2
    ________    ____

    {'#cup'}    332 

find(idx)

ans = 4

Try readcell:

data = readcell('Example.txt')

data = 6×2 cell array
    {'a'     }    {[12345]}
    {'apple' }    {[ 3333]}
    {'sky'   }    {[ 2412]}
    {'#cup'  }    {[  332]}
    {'#water'}    {[  827]}
    {'#paper'}    {[   99]}

row = contains(data(:, 1), 'cup')

row = 6×1 logical array
   0
   0
   0
   1
   0
   0

value = data{row, 2}

value = 332
