Append cell column to a matrix

I have a matrix AUC(3296x4) double, I need to append a cell column

 condition = {'FaHPF','FaHPuF','FaHuPF','FaHuPuF','FaEPF','FaEPuF','FaEuPF','FaEuPuF','HoHPF','HoHPuF','HoHuPF','HoHuPuF','HoEPF','HoEPuF','HoEuPF','HoEuPuF'};

to this matrix AUC upto 16 rows and then repeat this same column after 16 rows. How can I do that?

You can't. A possible workaround is converting the whole matrix to a cell matrix (for which you can use the num2cell function).
