how to store parts of one string into a string array??

i have a string .i have to identify some specified format in that string and store the identified patterns in another string array. i used to regexp to do that...

but the problem is that i couldn't store the obtained pattern in a string array.

this is the code i developed ......... can anyone help me with this problem??

    string='C12C3C4C1C5C4C3C25';  
    pattern1='([A-Z]\d{1,1}[A-Z|#()=:])';%to identify x1y format
    pattern2='([A-Z]\d{2})';%to identify x12y format
    pmat1= regexp(string,pattern1, 'match');
    pmat2= regexp(string,pattern2, 'match');
    for i=1:length(pmat1)
        r=pmat1{i:i};
        mat=r;
    end

Try this

        string='C12C3C4C1C5C4C3C25';  
        pattern1='([A-Z]\d{1,1}[A-Z|#()=:])';%to identify x1y format
        pattern2='([A-Z]\d{2})';%to identify x12y format
        pmat1= regexp(string,pattern1, 'match');
        pmat2= regexp(string,pattern2, 'match');
        cac = cell( length(pmat1), 1 );
        for i=1:length(pmat1)
            r=pmat1{i:i};
            cac{i}=r;
        end
        mat = cell2mat( cac );

or replace

        cac = cell( length(pmat1), 1 );

by

        cac = cell( 1, length(pmat1) );
