Hey guys,

I need to convert a 1 dimensional cell array of numbers that are in string format to an integer format.

example:

'1'
'2'
'3'

would be the cell array and we just want it to be
1
2
3

Any advice would be appreciated.

One way:
cellfun(@(x)str2num(x),A)

I'm pretty sure str2double will do this correctly.
