How to store instances of an object property in a cell array?

24 views (last 30 days)
I am making a class that defines a property 'Expression', which accepts vectors. Is there a way to access each instance of this property and store the vectors in a cell array? Thanks!

Thanks for your response, I'm new to Matlab so I'm still trying to better understand it, but that makes sense. To understand better what I'm trying to say: One object is created with the property 'Expression' set to [1:10], a second object is created with the property 'Expression' set to [2 4 6], and the last object is created with the property 'Expression' set to [5:10]. I'm trying to access each of these instances to compile them in a cell array. So, in this case the cell array would look like this:
expressionArray = {[1:10], [2 4 6], [5:10]};
Not sure if that is more clear but please let me know.

If you have an array of such objects, then you can do
result={obj.Expression}
Or if you don't have an array, then build one first,
obj=[obj1,obj2,obj3];
result={obj.Expression};

To add on to previous answer, add to your cell array as such
result = {obj1.Expression};
result{end+1} = obj2.Experssion;
result{end+1} = obj3.Expression;
