Find index of first nonempty cell in array?

15 views (last 30 days)
Hi,
I have a cell array with values and empty cells. I'd like to return the index of the first empty cell.
For example, for
A = [pizza] [pepperoni] [cheese] [] []
I'd like to return a value of 4.
Thanks!

A = {['pizza'] ['pepperoni'] ['cheese'] [] []}
find(cellfun(@isempty,A),1)

As usual I mention, that cellfun('isempty', A) is faster.
You do not need square brackets around strings.
