Compare elements of two cell vectors

Hi,

I have two cell vectors of different lengths, containing both numbers and numbers/characters.

Now, I want to delete all elements of vector A, which are not in vector B.

Best, Chris

Did you search the FEX (File Exchange)? Did you experiment with the function, ismember?

I found a solution.

First I converted all elements of both cell arrays to strings with this code I found:

numIndex = cellfun('isclass', B, 'double');
tmpStr = sprintf('%g;', B{numIndex});
B(numIndex) = dataread('string', tmpStr, '%s', 'delimiter', ';');

Then I compared the arrays with

ismember(A,B)

Thanks all anyway.
