Extract values from a double list

Hi,

I am trying to learn Matlab and I have two questions.

1)How can I extract from the below double the first element (8)?

myList=[8;6;9;0;6;5;4;5;6;7];

2)Also how can I replace this:

1×4 cell array

{'A'} {'B4'} {'G6'} {'D5'}

to this

A -> B4 -> G6 -> D5

Thank you in advance.

myList=[8;6;9;0;6;5;4;5;6;7];
myList(1) % Index posotion

ans = 8

The second question I don't understand, is it a single cell or cells within cell? If you are a beginner, go through MATLAB Onramp

Maybe the 2nd question means:

C = {'A', 'B4', 'G6', 'D5'};
D = strjoin(C, ' -> ')

D = 'A -> B4 -> G6 -> D5'

Use the online tutorial Kalyan has suggested. This is more efficient than asking the basics in the forum.
