Reshape nested cell arrays into the a different nested cell array organization

Hello, I have a nested cell array that has been built up such that the first level cell array A is {691x1}; within each cell in A, there is a second level cell array B of {48x1}; lastly within each cell in B there is a third level nested cell array C of {2x1}.

I want to reshape the nested cell array structure such that it is now organized in the order of cell array B {48x1} first; second level cell array C {2x1} and lastly a third level cell array of A {691x1}.

Is there a way to take the original cell array and use a specific function (such as reshape) to get my desired new nested cell array from my current nested cell array?

have: A {691x1} --> B{48x1} --> C{2x1}

want: B{48x1} --> C{2x1} --> A {691x1}

Thanks!

No, there is no way to do it.

Consider that you have your B 48 x 1 for each A 691 x 1. So there are 48*691 = 33168 different B. But you want to reorder it so there are only 48 different B. You would have to discard 33120 of the contents of B.
