[1 0 1 1 0 1 1 0] to [10 11 01 10]?

I need to transform 8 numbers into 4 like the title, how could i do that?

Cell array of character vectors, or a string array, not a single character vector as [] would merge the parts together.

"Numeric formats do not store leading digits"

I know what you meant by this (floating point formats), but in fact all of the integer formats store leading digits. For these formats it is more of a display issue rather than a storage issue.

@Stephen: I was responding to your blanket statement ... not to OP directly. E.g., the leading bits of 2's complement integers are physically stored, regardless of whether the MATLAB doc talks at this level or not.

V = [1 0 1 1 0 1 1 0];
one_way = V(1:2:end) * 10 + V(2:2:end)
another_way = reshape(V, 2, []).'
