How to put the data into matrix / table?

I have data that need to be insert in this matrix / table.

ship =

     0     0     0     0     0     0
     0     0     0     0     0     0
     0     0     0     0     0     0
     0     0     0     0     0     0
     0     0     0     0     0     0

The data is this.

     code =

  1×6 cell array

    {'Alpha'}    {'Bravo'}    {'Charlie'}    {'Delta'}    {'Echo'}    {'Foxtrot'}

I want it to be like this.

ship =

         0            0             0             0            0            0
         0            0             0             0            0            0
         0            0             0             0            0            0
         0            0             0             0            0            0
     {'Alpha'}    {'Bravo'}    {'Charlie'}    {'Delta'}    {'Echo'}    {'Foxtrot'}

Hi Muhammad,

A matrix must have all the elements of the same data type. Also a table can have different types of data but all the elements in a column must be of the same data type. So you cannot use both of them.

For your case you can create a cell array which can contain elements of various data types.
