creating a single structure with 100 entries

Question

John 2012-2-19

Hello,

I was hoping that perhaps somebody could help me out with a problem that I have.

I have imported 100 4x4 matrices into a cell array using the code below.

C = cell(100,1); 
for ii = 1:100 
C{ii} = importdata(['matrix' num2str(ii) '.txt']) ; 
end

I am wondering how would I create a structure with 100 entries and place a matrix in each entry.

The reason I ask is because I'm trying to get the average of these matrices and this post provides a solution if the matrices are in this format.

Thank you for your help

Regards

John

You don't need to create a structure for that. You can do this:

C2 = cat(3, C{:});
avg = mean(C2, 3)

FYI, to answer your original question, the function is cell2struct.
