Using xlsread to put info into a cell array

Hye!

I have to use xlsread to put information from an excell file into a cell array.

My teacher has given the following instruction:

[~,~,tabel] = xlsread('zurenEnBasen.xlsx')

But I don't understand what the [~,~,tabel] thing does...

Anyone who knows?

The xlsread function has three possible outputs. The tilde (~) signs here tell MATLAB to ignore the first two of those outputs. See the documentation section on Ignore Function Outputs for an extended explanation.
