Extract Structure element dynamically

2 views (last 30 days)
I have structure whose elements name change dynamically with respect to result file name.
I need an example code which extract structure elements from structure joinedtimetable 'joinedtimetable.Properties.VariableNames'
I need them for plotting the data like
size = numel(joinedtimetable.Properties.VariableNames)
for i = 1:numel(joinedtimetable.Properties.VariableNames)
VariableNames = ExtractName(joinedtimetable.Properties.VariableNames(i);
end
subplot(size,y,i);plot(joinedtimetable.VariableNames(1),joinedtimetable.VariableNames(2));

I would just convert it to a cell array which is easier to index through as you require
c=table2cell(timetable2table(joinedtimetable));
And then something like:
figure, hold on
for ii=1:size(c,2)
plot([c{:,ii}])
end
legend(joinedtimetable.Properties.VariableNames,'Interpreter','none')
How do you want to represent the non numerical data in your plots though??

%%
s.a=1:10;
s.b=rand(1,10);
EleNames=fieldnames(s);
plot(s.(EleNames{1}),s.(EleNames{2}));
