Generating a List from a Structure
For structures, extracting a field of the structure that exists across one of its
dimensions yields a comma-separated list.
Start by converting the cell array used above into a 4-by-1 MATLAB structure
with six fields: f1 through f6. Read field f5 for all rows and MATLAB returns
a comma-separated list:
S = cell2struct(C, {'f1', 'f2', 'f3', 'f4', 'f5', 'f6'}, 2);
S.f5
