Using strrep for matrix

Hello, I have some code that creates a scrambled character block of type char for instance

aaho

aoaa

daa

If i create a variable guess = 'hood'

how could i remove the word hood from the block and then display the block again with the removed 'hood'.

I have tried converting the block to a string array using "string()" then using "strrep() " to remove the the sequence and then convert it back to char but it did not work.

Any suggestions are greatly appeciated. Thanks in advance!

Keeping your 2d character array as is:

yourarray(ismember(yourarray, 'hood', 'rows'), :) = [];

or

yourarray(all(yourarray == 'hood', 2), :) = [];

Instead of using ‘hood’ could I put a variable in there? Say guess = hood. Could I put guess in your code and it would work the same?
