I have a 1*1 cell in which its content is ineger. I need to convert the content to integer (no cell anymore just like a number itself)
how can I do that?
I tied cell2mat but did not work. It is like this now:
kar =
1×1 cell array
{[3]}

While you're at it, let us know what this returns or if it returns an error, too.
class(kar{:})
size(kar{:})

If ‘kar’ is initially:
kar = {{[3]}};
try this:
n = cell2mat(kar{:})
producing:
n =
3

I get this error:
>> cell2mat(kar{:})
Brace indexing is not supported for variables of this type.
Error in cell2mat (line 36)
if isnumeric(c{1}) || ischar(c{1}) || islogical(c{1}) || isstruct(c{1})
