+ − % DESCRIPTION: STR2CELLS Take a single string and separate out individual
+ − % "elements" into a new cell array. Elements are defined as non-blank characters separated by
+ − % spaces.
+ − %
+ − % Similar to str2cell, except str2cell requires an array of strings.
+ − % str2cells requires only 1 string.
+ − %
+ − % CALL: newCell = str2cells(aString)
+ − %
+ − % INPUTS: aString - string
+ − %
+ − % OUTPUTS: newCell - cell array of strings
+ − %
+ − % EXAMPLE: Consider the following string in the workspace:
+ − %
+ − % aString = ' a b c d efgh ij klmnopqrs t u v w xyz '
+ − % newCell = 'a'
+ − % 'b'
+ − % 'c'
+ − % 'd'
+ − % 'efgh'
+ − % 'ij'
+ − % 'klmnopqrs'
+ − % 't'
+ − % 'u'
+ − % 'v'
+ − % 'w'
+ − % 'xyz'
