how to make all vectors to equal size for a cell array.

hi, i have a cell array of z{k}, it has totally 60 cells. which are diffident size in columns. so while i am trying to plot all arrays data in a single plot,[plot(z{1}) it works for one cell.] it says all vectors must have same size.

plot(z{:})
??? Error using ==> plot
Vectors must be the same lengths.

so, i want to make equal size of vectors by placing zeros. so any one can please help me.

It might be easier using a for-loop, with hold on;

figure;hold on;
for k=1:length(z)
plot(z{k});
end

lv = max(cellfun(@length,z));
za = zeros(1,lv);
for idx = 1:length(z)
    cellVal = z{idx};
  if length(cellVal) < lv
      z{idx} = za;
      z{idx}(1:length(cellVal)) = cellVal;
  end
end
