String to integer array in MATLAB GUIDE

Question

I'm working with GUIDE on MATLAB. In my GUI, there is a text field in which the user is to enter an array of numbers. How can I convert this into a form that can be used to perform calculations? Basically my question is how can a string like "[1 1 1]" be converted into an array? (I'm working with integers from the range of 0-360 so string-'0' doesn't work for me.)

Answer 1

You can use this:

 a = str2num('[1 1 1]')

Not sure what you meen by "string-'0' doesn't work for me" though.
