2cell2struct
Purpose Convert cell array to structure array
Syntax s = cell2struct(c,fields,dim)
Description s = cell2struct(c,fields,dim) creates a structure array, s, from the
information contained within cell array, c.
cell2struct
The fields argument specifies field names for the structure array. fields can
be a character array or a cell array of strings.
The dim argument controls which axis of the cell array is to be used in creating
the structure array. The length of c along the specified dimension must match
the number of fields named in fields. In other words, the following must be
true.
size(c,dim) == length(fields) % if fields is a cell array
size(c,dim) == size(fields,1) % if fields is a char array
Examples The cell array, c, in this example contains information on trees. The three
columns of the array indicate the common name, genus, and average height of
a tree.
c = {'birch','betula',65; 'maple','acer',50}
c =
'birch' 'betula' [65]
'maple' 'acer' [50]
To put this information into a structure with the fields name, genus, and
height, use cell2struct along the second dimension of the 2-by-3 cell array.
fields = {'name', 'genus', 'height'};
s = cell2struct(c, fields, 2);
This yields the following 2-by-1 structure array.

ans = ans =
name: 'birch' name: 'maple'
genus: 'betula' genus: 'acer'
height: 65 height: 50
