Conversion¶

Type, format, and representation conversions — numbers to strings, structs to name-value cells, tables ↔ CSV.

When to use which¶

Task	Use
Format double as an exponential string (for axis labels)	`double2estr()`, `double2expstr()`
Format double as a fraction	`double2fracstr()`
Format double as a multiple of π	`double2pifracstr()`
Generic value → string	`value2str()`
Convert a numeric array to a cell of strings	`num2cellstr()`
Struct → `{'k1', v1, ...}` cell (ready for `varargin`)	`struct2nvp()`
Struct → `'k1', v1, ...` string (for code)	`struct2nvpstr()`
Struct → literal MATLAB code text	`struct2codestr()`
MATLAB table ↔ CSV	`table2csv()`, `csv2table()`
