How can I split a cell array in which every cell has strings and numbers but the space made them split?

forexample: cell 1 = reser 1 12 15 55.67 77.899

You can use strsplit() or you can use regexp() with the 'split' option.

It doesn't work. It is cell arrays. Cell one =

RESERV    1  1928    552.45    551.82    551.70    552.47    553.37    556.57    556.86    556.30    556.40    556.21    555.72    554.10

cell_one = {'RESERV    1  1928    552.45    551.82    551.70    552.47    553.37    556.57    556.86    556.30    556.40    556.21    555.72    554.10'};
result = regexp(cell_one, '\s+', 'split');

result =
  cell
    {1×15 cell}
>> result{1}
ans =
  1×15 cell array
  Columns 1 through 14
    'RESERV'    '1'    '1928'    '552.45'    '551.82'    '551.70'    '552.47'    '553.37'    '556.57'    '556.86'    '556.30'    '556.40'    '556.21'    '555.72'
  Column 15
    '554.10'

Now, they are all characters. But we know that the first one is a string and the others are numbers. How can I send them into a matrix that because I want to plot RESERV 1 in 1928 based on the other numbers.

result_num = cell2mat(cellfun(@(C) str2double(C(2:end)), result, 'Uniform', 0));
