How can I combine strings in SIMULINK like in a MATLAB cell array?

Hi folks,

Imagine I have 3 string constant blocks:

How can I combine them in such a way to get something like a cell array in MATLAB so that there are 3 elements corresponding to the three strings?:

(Note: The three strings may be of different lengths)

(Note2: I should have made it clearer that the rightmost block is a display block)

Thank you,

Rafael

According to this doc page Simulink does not support string arrays.

However, it appears that you can pack them all into a bus if all you need to do is flow them as a group from one portion of your model to another and then unpack them for processing.

Hey Paul,

Thanks for the reply. I tried fiddling with the bus and it seems to be working. I think I cant do exactly what I wanted but I can work around it with the bus.

Thanks!
