trouble printing string and matrix using fprintf

so I have a 20x1 string which is

B=[Alanine Arginine Asparagine Aspartic Cysteine Glutamic Glutamine Glycine Histidine Isoleucine Leucine Lysine Methionine Phenylanlanine Proline Serine Threonine Tryptophan Tyrosine Valine]

which was original a cell that was taken from an excel file and I have a 1x20 matrix which is

Z=[ 89.0941  175.2109  132.1192  132.0960  121.1601  146.1229  146.1461   75.0672  156.1644  131.1748 131.1748  147.1974  149.2139  165.1919  116.1399  105.0935  119.1204  203.2206  469.7853  117.1479]

. Im supposed to display both of them side by side to one another vertically so one column is the B and the second column Z. When is use frpintf I cant get it to display properly. I use

fprintf('%s %f\n', B, Z);

to display them but everytime I use it I get

Alanine NaN

Asparagine NaN

Cysteine NaN

Glutamine NaN

Histidine NaN

Leucine NaN

Methionine NaN

Proline NaN

Threonine NaN

Tyrosine NaN

1.191204e+02 203.220620

4.697853e+02 117.147880

When I run the string and the matrix seperately using fprintf they display properly. How can I display them side by side properly?

temp = [cellstr(B(:)), num2cell(Z(:))];
fprintf('%s %f\n', temp{:});
