DEBLANK Remove trailing blanks from a string

Section: String Functions

Usage

The deblank function removes spaces at the end of a string when used with the syntax 
   y = deblank(x)

where x is a string, in which case, all of the extra spaces in x are stripped from the end of the string. Alternately, you can call deblank with a cell array of strings 

   y = deblank(c)

in which case each string in the cell array is deblanked.

Example

A simple example 
--> deblank('hello   ')

ans = 
hello

and a more complex example with a cell array of strings 

--> deblank({'hello  ','there ','  is  ','  sign  '})

ans = 
 [hello] [there] [  is] [  sign]
