Thank you so much.

Is there a way to "append to the beginning" of the cell array?

See this snippet. Hopefully it's self-explanatory.

% Create a new cell array.
ca = cell(1, 3);
for k = 1 : length(ca)
	ca{k} = 1:k;
end
ca % Display in command window.
newStuff = rand(2); % Create some new data.
% Prepend it before cell #1, and show resulting array in the command window.
ca = [newStuff, ca]

You can also use the cat command to "append to the beginning".

C = {"the" "end"};
C = cat(2,{"not"},C);

[Christopher Davis]

That's really helpful, not sure if it's proper terminology but I've heard this refered to as prepend

[Pedro Miranda Pinheiro]

Thank you, @Walter Roberson! @Christopher Davis, prepend is used for insertion of an element in the begining of a data structure. Append is the one used for end insertion as mentioned above.
