A = 'orange'
A is a vector of type char. It has 1 row and 6 columns.
If you're working with multiple pieces of text data and you're using a release where this data type is present, prefer using a string array instead of a cell array with char vectors or a char matrix.
B = ["orange"; "apple"; "watermelon"]
If you tried to store these three fruits in a char matrix, the first two names would be padded with spaces so they're as long as the longest name. String arrays don't require this padding.
C = char(B)
