Input T is a <a href = "https://fr.mathworks.com/help/matlab/ref/triangulation.html">triangulation</a>.The purpose of this function is to query at once the cell array N of all vertex neighbor indices... of every vertices, nothing less (!)Output N must be a cell array since of course each vertex may have a different number of neighbors.For example, for an input filled octahedron whom triangulation is<pre class="language-matlab">T = [1, 2, 3;...
 1, 3, 4;...
 1, 4, 5;...
 1, 2, 5;...
 2, 3, 6;...
 3, 4, 6;...
 4, 5, 6;...
 2, 5, 6;...
 2, 3, 4;...
 2, 4, 5;...
 1, 2, 4;...
 2, 4, 6],
</pre>then the output N is a 6x1 cell array of integers row vectors, such that :<pre class="language-matlab">N(1,1) = {[2, 3, 4, 5]};
N(2,1) = {[1, 3, 4, 5, 6]};
N(3,1) = {[1, 2, 4, 6]};
N(4,1) = {[1, 2, 3, 5, 6]};
N(5,1) = {[1, 2, 4, 6]};
N(6,1) = {[2, 3, 4, 5]};
</pre>Indeed vertex #2 is part of triangles [1, 2, 3], [1, 2, 5], [2, 3, 6], [2, 5, 6], [2, 3, 4], [2, 4, 5], [1, 2, 4], and [2, 4, 6], it then admit all the other vertices as neighbors ([1, 3, 4, 5, 6]).Hypothesis / conditions :<ul><li>a vertex is the neighbor of another if they are linked with an edge in at least one same triangle. A vertex is not neighbor of itself.</li></ul><ul><li>Output N row order is crucial since row number actually corresponds to the vertex id / index.</li></ul><ul><li>Output N cells content order doesn't matter, but it doesn't admit any duplicated index / value.</li></ul>Tip : solving <a href = "https://fr.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/cody/players/8668631-nicolas-douillet/created">my previous problems</a>, and especially <a href = "https://fr.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/cody/problems/45256-query-a-vertex-neighbors">query_vertex_neighbors</a> will help you to fully understand and solve this one.NB : the question of unreferenced vertices is not tacled here. We just supposed there are not.Good work Matlab-bro ! :)

Pedagogic solution is available in position 2 (commented, same as solution 1 but more explicit thus suboptimal).
