Structures in Matlab
In MATLAB you cannot create an array that is a direct analog to an range which can contain mixed data types. In MATLAB you cannot do the following:
Example
>> my.birthday = 1986
my =
birthday: 1986
>> my.class = 'MS'
my =
birthday: 1986
class: 'MS'
>> my.university = 'cornell'
my =
birthday: 1986
class: 'MS'
university: 'cornell'
In the above example my will be a structure with some properties.
Another structure define way with struct keyword
>> my1 = struct('birthday',1986,'class','MS','university','cornell')
my1 =
birthday: 1986
class: 'MS'
university: 'cornell'
Structures values accessed as :
Example
>> my1.birthday
ans =
1986
>> my.class
ans =
MS
>> my.birthday
ans =
1986
>> my.university
ans =
cornell
>> my.class
ans =
MS
