Hello guys !
(Sorry 4 my english)
I'm trying to remove character in a table that contains some genome sequences (cell vector)... In particular i have:
A = {'T'; 'G'; 'A'; 'TT'; 'TGAT'; 'G'};
My intention is to delete all the rows that contain MORE than one letter.. so the rows 'TT' and 'TGAT' must be deleted.
Can you help me please? Is there some particular function that i can use?
Ty so much

A = {'T'; 'G'; 'A'; 'TT'; 'TGAT'; 'G'};
l = cell2mat(cellfun(@length,A,'un',0)) ;
A(l>1) = []

out = A(cellfun(@numel,A) == 1)
