uitable operation

I want to perform the uitable operation as below:

1. Row first has 15 empty cells, row second has 15 empty cells and row three has 15 empty cells too.

2. In row 1st, I put a number in cell 1 and cell 6. In row 2nd, I put a number in cell 7. In row 3 still empty.

3. In row 1st, 2nd and 3rd, I need to put number 0 automaticly accept the filled cells before.

How this operation will code? I want to know the steps because really do not know how. Please help me.

data = cell(3,15);

data{1,1} = rand; data{1,6} = rand;
data{2,7} = rand;

data(cellfun(@isempty,data)) = 0;

uitable(..., 'Data', 'data');
