I have this code creating a list of months, however the output is on the last month, Dec. Is it possible to create a matrix of the individual month in order to incorporate into another code?

ii = 1; %counter
% creating a list of months
while ii<=12
   t = datetime(2016,ii,01):calweeks(5):datetime(2016,ii+1,01);
   m(ii) = (month (t,'shortname'));
    ii = ii+1;
   end

I'm not sure about what output you require from this code so I'm assume that you just want a cell array with month values.

It's considered good to avoid using loops in MATLAB. Thus, the code you've written is generally considered inefficient. I have made the modifications to get the output that I assume you want.

temp = datetime(2016,01,01):calmonths(1):datetime(2016,12,31)
month_cell_array = month(x, 'name');

month_cell_array now contains the names of the months.

In case you expected some other output, let me know. :)

 string(month(datetime(1,1:12,1),'shortname'))

ans = 1×12 string array
    "Jan"    "Feb"    "Mar"    "Apr"    "May"    "Jun"    "Jul"    "Aug"    "Sep"    "Oct"    "Nov"    "Dec"

This should work well
