give first element of cell in matlab

In MATLAB, you can index into a cell array to access its elements. To access the first element (or any element) of a cell array, you use curly brackets {} instead of parentheses () as you would in regular numeric indexing.

Here's an example:

main.m
% Create a cell array
myCellArray = {'apple', 'orange', 'banana'};

% Access the first element using curly brackets
firstElement = myCellArray{1};
147 chars
6 lines

In this example, myCellArray{1} will return the value 'apple', which is the first element of the cell array. Note that indexing with {} returns the contents of the specified cell, rather than a sub-array.
