Hi! This might be an easy question, but since I am new in matlab, I do not know how to add one row in the first row of table. have a table consist only one column called "timediff" with the size 2143x1 table, I want to make it 2144x1 table, with the addition one row in the first row, and the value is 0. Could you please help me? Thank you in advance

You have to convert the array elements to string, add the specified row and then create a table. An example:
a=5*ones(2143,1);%this is a double array
aTable=array2table(a);%2143x1 table
b=3;%new variable to be added
aNewTable=array2table(str2double([string(b);string(a)]));%2144x1 table

row=input('Enter number of rows\n');
a=5*ones(2143,1);
aTable=array2table(a);
b=3*ones(row,1);
aTablee=array2table(str2double([string(b);string(a)]))
We can make the number of row variable like this, a user data.

My first observation is that if your table has only one variable, you are likely better off not using a table. They are containers for mix-type data. But your Nx1 table may just be a starting point for more vars.
To add a row at the beginning, do exactly the same thing you would do with a numeric vector: use vertcat.
>> t = table([1;2;3])
t =
3×1 table
Var1
____
1
2
3
>> t = [table(0); t]
t =
4×1 table
Var1
____
0
1
2
3
