Hi,
I have a table with a columns of say 10 values from 1 to 10 and I have an array of 5 values with values as 2, 4, 6, 7,8. How do i create a new column in the table which will copy the data from the array match with the table values and fill Nan on those values which are not same?

T1=table((1:10).');
T2=table([2, 4, 6, 7, 8].');
outerjoin(T1,T2)

I ran into this error
Error using tabular/outerjoin (line 148)
Cannot find a common table variable to use as a key variable.
Error in new_code (line 12)
T=outerjoin(T,T2);

You have problems with copying the code correctly. Go back, copy my answer and paste it in the command window.

Left and right key variables 'Var1' and 'Var1' do not have the same number of columns.
Error in new_code (line 13)
