how to determine if a cell is empty in matlab

To determine if a cell is empty or not, we can use the built-in function isempty(). This function returns a logical 1 (true) if the input is an empty array and logical 0 (false) otherwise.

The following code snippet shows an example of how to use isempty() for a cell array:

main.m
% Create a cell array with some entries
myCell = {'apple', [], 3, 'orange', []};

% Check if the third entry is empty using isempty()
if isempty(myCell{3})
    disp('The third entry is empty')
else
    disp('The third entry is not empty')
end

In the code above, we first create a cell array myCell with some entries, including empty cells. We then use isempty() to check if the third entry is empty or not by passing myCell{3} as an input to the function. Depending on the result, we print out a message saying whether the third entry is empty or not.
