I have a cell array of strings which I would like to remove the elements which start with an uppercase R. What is the easiest way to do this?

Unfortunately you didn't read the posting guidelines and therefore forgot to attach your data. But I'll take a stab at it with no data.
numCells = numel(ExpModOutVariables);
indexesToDelete = false(numCells, 1);
for k = 1 : numCells
thisCell = ExpModOutVariables{k};
if startsWith(thisCell, 'R')
indexesToDelete(k) = true;
end
end
% Do the deletion
ExpModOutVariables(indexesToDelete) = [];
If you have any more questions, then attach your data and code to read it in with the paperclip icon after you read this:
