any faster/straightforward way to find the location of empty cell in a cell array

Hi:

I have a cell array called 'tmp', it is either '1' or 'empty' inside. I want to find the location where '1' is in the 'tmp', what I did is use 'for-loop' to read inside one-by-one. is there any more straightforward way to do this?

Thanks!

Yu

index=find(cellfun(@isempty,tmp(:))) %returns index

command window:

index =

     1
     2
     3
     4
    10
    11

Hi:

Thanks for your reply. another relate question is how to find the ~isempty cells, I tried

index=cellfun(@~isempty,tmp(:)) but Matlab reported error.

Thanks!
