how to convert column cell to row cell?

Hi,
For example I have a 3x1 cell matrix like this. {[1,2,3] [4,5,6] [7,8,9]}; where every element is a 1x3 matrix.
I want to convert the row cells to 3x1 column cells like this {[1;2;3] [4;5;6] [7;8;9]};
How do I do this ? Thank you.

cellfun(@transpose, yourcellarray, 'UniformOutput', false)

" have a 3x1 cell matrix like this. {[1,2,3] [4,5,6] [7,8,9]}" and "I ran that, and it returned all of the elements". One of these two statements directly contradict the other:
>>c = {[1,2,3] [4,5,6] [7,8,9]};
>>find(~cellfun(@ismatrix, c))
ans =
1x0 empty double row vector
If the arrays in your cell arrays have more than two dimensions, there's no way to transpose them since transposition is only defined for 2D matrices. If what you want to do is just swap 1st and 2nd dimension, leaving the others untouced:
cellfun(@(m) permute(m, [2 1 3:ndims(m)]), yourcellarray, 'UniformOutput', false)
"Can you make a normal matrix [...] to a cell matrix" There's no such thing as a cell matrix. To produce the cell array in your example:
m = [1 2 3; 4 5 6; 7 8 9];
c = num2cell(m.', 2).'
