How to set names to column vectors?

Hi my friends, how to set name to columns vectors?, for instance these? disp(C) 15.5528 601.4385 11.8749 129.4530 13.2851 270.5859 9.9169 3.4992 20.6769 936.8461 12.1105 436.2808 16.3999 768.1774

If you want to associate a variable name with a piece of data I think your best bet is to use a table instead.

If you just want to display formatted text you can use sprintf().

George how would i put the name to the two columns of my matrix?, the first column (Temp), and second one (Irr):

   12.1105  436.2808
   11.8749  129.4530
    9.9169    3.4992
   16.3999  768.1774
   13.2851  270.5859
   20.6769  936.8461
   15.5528  601.4385

Assuming that matrix is called myMatrix

A = table(myMatrix, 'VariableNames', {'Temp', 'Irr'});

will create a table variable of the matrix and name the variables Temp and Irr.

The correct syntax to convert a matrix into a table is:

A = array2table(myMatrix, 'VariableNames', {'Temp', 'Irr'});

The table constructor expects one input per column, not a matrix of columns. The above will result in an error.

Oops, that's correct. Good catch. I was recalling that he had said column vectors.
