I had number of EV in different time stamp in each time, and a group of their battery capacity and type of it. first randomly divide number of EVs in 2nd column as
for i=1:24
N_EV(i)= randi(15,1,1); % not more than 15
end
Now I had Cap=[2,4,6];
so for each EVs , select a random Cap from this Cap as shown in 4th column,
Then based on logic in 6th column based on Cap value define their type of EVs

Whats your question here? Can you update the question with the data set, the code you tried, place where you struck or getting incorrect outputs?

I think I understand at least part of your question.
Do you have the Statistics and Machine Learning Toolbox? If so, then to select 4 EV from set of Caps [2,4,6], you can do
randsample([2,4,6],4)

I'm glad you found a solution.
I strongly recommend against using cell as a variable name, since it is a MATLAB function. This is a very confusing line of code:
cell=cell(24,1);
for anyone trying to understand what you are doing, and is also prevents future use of cell() as a function.
It's better to give that variable a meaningful name.
