preparets error for using in narxnet

Following error is encountered with preparets: [x,xi,ai,t]=preparets(net,inputs,{},targets); .... Error using preparets (line 105) Feedback and inputs have different numbers of timesteps.

My Code reads Inputs from a xlsx file and targets with another xlsx file.

filepath='Inputdata.xlsx'; X=xlsread(filepath); % reading the Input file with size 8461*53

filepath='Targetdata.xlsx'; Y=xlsread(filepath); % Reading the Target Input file size 1*53

inputs=num2cell(X,1); targets=num2cell(Y,1);

trainFcn='trainlm'; inputDelays=1:2; feedbackDelays=1:2; hiddenLayerSize=5;

net=narxnet(inputDelays,feedbackDelays,hiddenLayerSize,'open',trainFcn);

[x,xi,ai,t]=preparets(net,inputs,{},targets);

I have solved the problem using reshape and con2seq: That makes the input and target of same size!

u=X(200:500,:); y=T(200:500,:);

r1=length (u); c1=size(u,2); % Taking size of Input vector r2=length (y); c2=size(y,2); % Taking size of Target vector

u=reshape(u,c1,r1); %Making cell array of Input Matrix %u=num2cell(X,1); u=con2seq(u);

y=reshape(y,c2,r2); %Making cell array of Target matrix %y=num2cell(T,1); y=con2seq(y);

Come on ...

Error using preparets (line 105) Feedback and inputs have different numbers of timesteps

So why don't you EXPLICITLY calculate the sizes ???????????????????

inputsize = size(inputs)

targetsize = size(targets)

Thank you for EXPLICITLY accepting my answer!

Is it right to convert input of size (8461*53) to sequential vectors for narxnet training
