Hi,
This seems not to work as intended:
>> str2num('"Y"')
ans =
"Y"
This should return an empty array.

In r2020a:
>> str2num('"Y"')
ans =
[]
as expected, since it's not a number. So the best answer is to upgrade. Can you do that? Are you on the maintenance plan?

Seems that way.
>> version
ans =
'9.5.0.1298439 (R2018b) Update 7'
>> str2num('"Y"')
ans =
"Y"
>> version
ans =
'9.7.0.1319299 (R2019b) Update 5'
>> str2num('"Y"')
ans =
[]
