how to extend each element in a cell string array to fixed size?

4 views (last 30 days)
I have a cell string array A={'123', '4567', 67894'}, I want to extend each element to a fixed size, like size of 8, and fill in '0' in front. Like: A={'00000123', '00004567', '00067894'}. Can I get help? Thanks!

for k=1:length(A)
A{k}=[repmat('0',1,8-length(A{k})),A{k}];
end
