I've got a nx1 cell array of strings that correspond to spatial coordinates. Here's an example where n=4,
'122.8233,216.1323,671.8740'
'122.8233,216.1323,671.8740'
'122.8233,216.1323,671.8740'
'122.8233,216.1323,671.8740'
Each row of the cell array is a string containing x,y, and z coordinates separated by a comma. I need to parse each string to separate the coordinates, convert the coordinates to numbers, do an operation on them, then put them back in their original format. Is there a way to do this without looping through each row of the cell array? Any tips or insight would be greatly appreciated.
Regards, Justin

With 'Headerlines' and 'N' of textscan it would still be possible to read and parse in one step. However, you need to find out the values of the two first.

clear
A={'122.8233,216.1323,671.8740'
'122.8233,216.1323,671.8740'
'122.8233,216.1323,671.8740'
'122.8233,216.1323,671.8740'}
B=cellfun(@(x) regexp(x,',','split'),A,'uni',false)
out=cell2mat(cellfun(@(x) [cellfun(@(y) str2num(y),x)],B,'uni',false))
%or easier
out=str2num(cell2mat(A))

C = {'122.8233,216.1323,671.8740'
'122.8233,216.1323,671.8740'
'122.8233,216.1323,671.8740'
'122.8233,216.1323,671.8740'};
% Extract the numbers:
D = cellfun(@str2num,C,'Un',0);
% Do the 'operation' on the coords with cellfun:
E = cellfun(@(x) x+[1 2 3],D,'Un',0)
% Put them back in original format.
F = cellfun(@(x) sprintf('%.4f,',x),E,'Un',0)
Note that the step from D to E is ambiguous given your description, but you get the idea.

On possibility for your first step - if the file is not huge:
str = {
'122.8233,216.1323,671.8740'
'122.8233,216.1323,671.8740'
'122.8233,216.1323,671.8740'
'122.8233,216.1323,671.8740'
};
M = str2num( char(str) );
or I didn't get it.

cellstr( num2str( M, '%f,%f,%f\n' ) )
However, write the numerical array directly to the file with fprintf in a loop I guess that fast enough. Otherwise, transpose the numerical array and write with fprintf, but only if profile showed that it could be worth the trouble.
