Delete empty cell array

Hi all,I have a problem regarding deletion in cell array.

The cell array is like A=

   neigh    node_id
   []        [1]
   [3X1]     [2] 
   [5X1]     [3]
   [2X1]     [4]
   []        [5]
   [9X1]     [6]

Now, i want to delete the cells A{1,:} and A{5,:},as (A{1,1}=[] and A{5,1}=[]). Thus resulting array would be like:

A=

   neigh    node_id   
   [3X1]     [2] 
   [5X1]     [3]
   [2X1]     [4]   
   [9X1]     [6]

the code

 A =  A(~cellfun('isempty', A)); is not able to work on this type of array A=cell(6,2).

Thanks

"is not able to work" is a bad description of the problem. Please post the error message or explain in detail the difference between the results and your expectations.

A = A(~any(cellfun('isempty', A), 2), :);

One more solution I found is

 B=[];
 count=1;
for i=1:size(A,1)
      if(size(A{i,1},2)~=0)
         B{count,1}=A{i,1};
         B{count,2}=A{i,2};
         count=count+1;
      end
end

That is clean and elegant solution Jan. I learn a lot with this community.

Thank you very much.

have you tried something like this?

   for i=1:length(your_cell_size)
      idx(i) = find(~cellfun(@isempty,A{i}));

   end
     A=A{~idx}
