FROM STRING TO ARRAY

how i can to change from string like that :

x = ('ABCDE') ;

to array like:

y = [A,B,C,D,E];

[Jan]

Please explain, what "[A,B,C,D,E];" means. What is the contents of the variables A, B, C, D, E?

If you really want to access variables dynamically by their names: Don't do thia. TUTORIAL: Why and how to avoid EVAL

From char to cell array of characters

x = 'ABCDE';
y = num2cell(x); 
y =
  1×5 cell array
    {'A'}    {'B'}    {'C'}    {'D'}    {'E'}

...to string array of single characters

ys =string(y)
ys = 
  1×5 string array
    "A"    "B"    "C"    "D"    "E"

From String to cell array of characters

x = "ABCDE"; 
y = num2cell(x{:});
