When indexing cells with {}, referencing more than one element
produces a comma-separated list (cs-list). cs-lists can't be assigned
to a variable; only the first element is assigned. The above
expression should work and should end up with b = "2". What's your
Octave version?
There's no such thing as "vector of strings" in Octave. If you mean a
cell array (1xN or Nx1) of strings (character matrices), then I don't
understand your question. If you're asking how to convert a cell array
of strings into a character matrix with multiple rows, then the answer
is char (). Please be more specific about what you need.
