Extracting values data from variable field to a matrix

I want to extract in a matrix all the datas of the field Latency. I passed to extract the first value with the code

 trials_struct{1,1}.Latency

But I don't find the solution to get all value in one matrix in one loop.

Your misleadingly named trials_struct is actually a 1x186 cell array, each cell contains one scalar structure with multiple fields. Unfortunately the fieldnames are not all the same: if they were then your data would be better stored in a non-scalar structure, then the solution to your task is also trivial:

[real_struct.Latency]

Unfortunately because the fieldnames differ you will have to stick with a cell array and use a loop or cellfun:

cellfun(@(s)s.Latency,trials_struct)

In this case it worked, but note that if any of the scalar structures does not have that field Latency, then the code will throw an error.

thank you Stephen! It work;
