Section: String Functions
Removes the white-spaces at the beginning and end of a string (or a cell array of strings). See isspace
for a definition of a white-space. There are two forms for the strtrim
function. The first is for single strings
y = strtrim(strng)
where strng
is a string. The second form operates on a cell array of strings
y = strtrim(cellstr)
and trims each string in the cell array.
Here we apply strtrim
to a simple string
--> strtrim(' lot of blank spaces ');
and here we apply it to a cell array
--> strtrim({' space','enough ',' for ',''}) ans = [space] [enough] [for] []
