How to count the number of zero subcells in a cell?

I have a cell array 12*32. each element of my cell contains 32 data. for example C{11,32}='0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 ' . I want to count how many of zero array like above is there in my cell. could any one help me? thanks

Insufficient information about what else might be in the string, and whether you also need to find 0's expressed as 0. or .0 or 0.0 or 0.E+0 (and so on)
t1 and t2 are my database.In this code I want to count howmany '0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0' happens in diffrcell

If you have a cell array of matrices:
C{1,1} = ones(1,32);
C{1,2} = 2*ones(1,32);
C{2,1} = zeros(1,32);
C{2,2} = zeros(1,32);
N = nnz(cellfun(@(x) nnz(x)==0, C));
If you have a cell array of cells, an additional cell2mat is needed:
C = {{rand(5,1)}, {rand(7,1)}, {zeros(6,1)}, {rand(7,1)}, {0 1 2 3}, {-1 1}};
N = nnz(cellfun(@(x) nnz(cell2mat(x))==0, C));
Most of the code can be replaced.
tt2u = unique(tt2{1}, 'rows');
tt3u = unique(tt3{1}, 'rows');
number_of_similar_chunks = sum( ismember(tt2u, tt3u) );
However you should clarify how you want the counting to occur if there are duplicate entries in one of the array that match the other array.
