Hi, i want to get index of different cell value between multiple cell array using result of strcmp.

I know how to use strcmp.

In example :

cell_array_1 = {
                 'love', 'love', 'love';
                 'love', 'love', 'love';
                 'love', 'love', 'love';
                 'love', 'love', 'love';
               }

cell_array_2 = {
                 'love', 'love', 'love';
                 'love', 'peace', 'love';
                 'love', 'love', 'peace';
                 'love', 'love', 'love';
               }

Using strcmp :

strcmp(cell_array_1, cell_array_2)
>>
strcmp_result = 

'1' '1' '1'
'1' '0' '1'
'1' '1' '0'
'1' '1' '1'

The purpose is, i want to get '0' elemen's index. So i can change their font's color on UI table.

I just know how to change the font's color like this (for UI table) :

for i_row = 1:size(strcmp_result, 1)
   for i_column = 1:size(strcmp_result, 2)
      strcmp_result(i_row, i_column) = strcat('<html><body bgcolor="#ffe097" text="#794044">', strcmp_result(i_row, i_column));
   end
end

With above code, the whole font of table is colored.

How to give spesific index from strcmp?

Thanks in advance.

Your strcmp_result is not a cell array of strings like you show: it will be an array of logical.
for i_row = 1:size(strcmp_result, 1)
for i_column = 1:size(strcmp_result, 2)
if strcmp_result(i_row, i_column)
strcmp_result_str{i_row, i_column} = '1';
else
strcmp_result_str{i_row, i_column} = '<html><body bgcolor="#ffe097" text="#794044">0';
end
end
end
Now set strcmp_result_str as the Data for the uitable
