Can I rewrite 'summary' command for categorical variable?

I need the output of 'summary' command in table format. I tried to rewrite the 'summary' command codes in local copy of it but i have some error that does not let me use it. The error returns to 'subsref.m' function that has to parameters (subsref(a,s)), a is the categorical variable and s is a structure with the fields:

         type -- string containing '()' specifying the subscript type.
                 Only parenthesis subscripting is allowed.
         subs -- Cell array or string containing the actual subscripts.

Error reason is that s.type is .(dot) in my local copy named summaryFun!!

How can i fix it?

I also used

tablesummary = evalc('summary(t1.Var15)');

But the output would be char array!!! If i could convert tablesummary to a table it would be fin too!!

You could parse the result of the evalc(), potentially.

As you know tablesummary would be something like:

That is a 1-by-81 char!!

<=50K category has been seen 35352 times and >50K category has been seen 11158 times! I need this information in table.

regexp(), strsplit(), sscanf() -- there are a lot of different ways to parse a char array.

Tank you dear Walter I used strsplit() and the problem was solved
