Removing cell arrays from code

Hi all,

I am working on some Matlab scripts which require converting to C. I plan on doing that using Matlab Coder, and therefore I need to eliminate features such as cell arrays and function handles as Matlab Coder can't work with them.

I would just like some advice regarding cell arrays. Would the best way of eliminating them be using structures in the code instead?

E.g. converting

mystrings = {'name','surname'};

to

mystrings(1).name = 'name'; mystrings(2).surname = 'surname';

Am I going the right way thinking about this?

Thank you!

Yes.

That's correct, essentially, convert your cell arrays into structs and you'll be all set. So I'd use:

mystrings(1).name = 'name'; mystrings(1).surname = 'surname';
