Chapter 15, Problem 23ICA

Each of the following questions contains a description of a desired result and code that was written to accomplish that goal.

For each item. state whether or not the code performs the desired task, and if not, show one way to modify the code so that it works correctly.

a. Place the three words The, red, and bee into a 1 x 3 cell array words.

b. Create a 2 × 2 cell array Name containing the values 15 and 18 in the first row, and the values –9 and –6 in the second row.

c. Place the entire lowercase Engl1sh alphabet (a through z) 1nto a one-element cell array .Alphabet.

d. Replace the top right element in the 2 × 2 cell array Name with the word BOGUS.

e. Assume the 1 × 3 cell array suff contains the 2 × 3 matrix  2 e n , the text stnng Goofball, and a 1 × 1 cell array containing the number 42. You  wish to divide the value stored in the cell array in the third element of stuff (42) by 17 and place the result in the numeric scalar R.

f. Given the same cell array .stuff as described in the previous problem, you wish to delete the four letters oofb from the second element of  stuff.

g. You wish to multiply the values in the top row of the first element of stuff by the values in the second row of the first element of stuff (element-wise multiply) and place the result in the numeric row vector Prod.
