<p><a name="index-cell-arrays-387"></a>
It can be both necessary and convenient to store several variables of
different size or type in one variable.  A cell array is a container
class able to do just that.  In general cell arrays work just like
N-dimensional arrays with the exception of the use of &lsquo;<samp><span class="samp">{</span></samp>&rsquo;
and &lsquo;<samp><span class="samp">}</span></samp>&rsquo; as allocation and indexing operators.
