The empty strings represent splits between spaces and sequences of letters that had nothing else between them.
													
																	Delimit strings mat. 
									
	
		
	
																	Some strings abc xyz hello world 25 c output. 
																	Text specified in delimiter does not appear in the output c. 
																	This function is used to read a string or a line from input stream. 
																	Separated string abc xyz hello world 25 c algorithm step 1. 
															
													
									
	
		
	
																	Add item into a vector step 3. 
																	For example to extract just the 4th. 
																	Although the example is set up to extract 5 substrings from the text in column b you can easily extract just 1 instance. 
																	It automatically adjusts for the different numbers of columns in your matrices. 
															
													
									
	
		
	
																	Take item before comma step 2 2. 
																	Extract just one instance. 
																	For example in 10 apples there is a split before the delimiter and then between and apples. 
																	While the stream is not completed step 2 1. 
															
													
									
	
		
	
																	Common delimiters are commas semicolon quotes braces pipes or slashes. 
																	A delimiter is one or more characters that separate text strings. 
																	Delimiting characters specified as a character vector a 1 by n cell array of character vectors or a 1 by n string array. 
																	For example in the data john doe a vertical bar the pipe character delimits. 
															
													
									
	
		
	
																	The trim function then removes all extra spaces and returns just the nth string. 
																	Specify multiple delimiters in a cell array or a string array. 
																	The total characters extracted is equal to the length of the full text string. 
																	This reads the entire data matrix between the date vectors into a numeric matrix inside the cell array dat and the date vectors in dtv. 
															
													
									
	
		
	
																	Split the string using pat as the delimiter.
