Hello everyone,
I have a big table (25560 x 12) which includes data for 71 stations on a monthly bases from 30 years. I want to extract data from it based on the names (from station_name column) and month names (from date column). I want to save all results on the workspace as separate tables.
I searched a lot and write this code that does what I want for 2 stations but unfortunately, I should write it for all 71 stations (change names by hand) that is so time-consuming process. I want to ask if anyone could help me to do it using for loop or something.
%Read one of stations
Ahvaz_table = stations(stations.station_name == "Ahvaz", :);
%extract it month by month with name of month infront of station name:
Ahvaz_Jan = Ahvaz_table(month(Ahvaz_table.date) == 1, :)
Ahvaz_Feb = Ahvaz_table(month(Ahvaz_table.date) == 2, :)
Ahvaz_Mar = Ahvaz_table(month(Ahvaz_table.date) == 3, :)
Ahvaz_Apr = Ahvaz_table(month(Ahvaz_table.date) == 4, :)
Ahvaz_May = Ahvaz_table(month(Ahvaz_table.date) == 5, :)
Ahvaz_Jun = Ahvaz_table(month(Ahvaz_table.date) == 6, :)
Ahvaz_Jul = Ahvaz_table(month(Ahvaz_table.date) == 7, :)
Ahvaz_Aug = Ahvaz_table(month(Ahvaz_table.date) == 8, :)
Ahvaz_Sep = Ahvaz_table(month(Ahvaz_table.date) == 9, :)
Ahvaz_Oct = Ahvaz_table(month(Ahvaz_table.date) == 10, :)
Ahvaz_Nov = Ahvaz_table(month(Ahvaz_table.date) == 11, :)
Ahvaz_Dec = Ahvaz_table(month(Ahvaz_table.date) == 12, :)
%go to next station
Fasa_table = stations(stations.station_name == "Fasa", :);
%extract it month by month with name of month infront of station name:
Fasa_Jan = Fasa_table(month(Fasa_table.date) == 1, :)
Fasa_Feb = Fasa_table(month(Fasa_table.date) == 2, :)
Fasa_Mar = Fasa_table(month(Fasa_table.date) == 3, :)
Fasa_Apr = Fasa_table(month(Fasa_table.date) == 4, :)
Fasa_May = Fasa_table(month(Fasa_table.date) == 5, :)
Fasa_Jun = Fasa_table(month(Fasa_table.date) == 6, :)
Fasa_Jul = Fasa_table(month(Fasa_table.date) == 7, :)
Fasa_Aug = Fasa_table(month(Fasa_table.date) == 8, :)
Fasa_Sep = Fasa_table(month(Fasa_table.date) == 9, :)
Fasa_Oct = Fasa_table(month(Fasa_table.date) == 10, :)
Fasa_Nov = Fasa_table(month(Fasa_table.date) == 11, :)
Fasa_Dec = Fasa_table(month(Fasa_table.date) == 12, :)
% go to next station

Thank you all.
I attached my whole table.

If I recall correctly, I believe OP resolved that in a previous question.
Just in case that's still an issue, Behzad Navidi, this loop will rename the "data" column to "date" for all tables in C.
% Change "data" col to "date"
for i = 1:numel(C)
C{i}.Properties.VariableNames = strrep(C{1}.Properties.VariableNames,'data','date');
end

"I want to save all results on the workspace as separate tables."
And that is the start of the problem.
"... I should write it for all 71 stations (change names by hand) that is so time-consuming process."
Putting meta-data (such as month names) into variable names means that you are doing something wrong.
Repeating code is a sign that you are doing something wrong.
You should be using one array. Then access it in a loop using indexing, dynamic fieldnames, etc.

The variable "C" is a 1xn cell array where each element contains a table. Each table contains a column "date" listing dates in datetime format (from your previous questions).
This solution seaprates each table by month to create an nx12 cell array where Cmo{i,j} contains a subtable from station i and month j.
% Loop through each table and break it apart by month
% creating 12 sub-tables that are stored in the rows
% of Cmo.
Cmo = cell(numel(C),12);
for i = 1:numel(C)
Cmo(i,:) = arrayfun(@(m){C{i}(month(C{i}.date) == m, :)},1:12);
end
Depending on how you'll use these data, it may be more practical to keep the tables all together rather then splitting them by month and using logical indexing to isolate the rows of a table that are associated with a particular month.

I'd recommend using structs and dynamic fieldnames instead of setting dynamic variable names for your station names and month. Give this a try and see if it does what you want.
finalStations = struct;
monthText = {'Jan' 'Feb', 'Mar', 'Apr', 'May', 'Jun', ...
'Jul', 'Aug', 'Sep', 'Oct', 'Nov', 'Dec'};
stationNames = unique(stations.station_name);
for sx = 1:length(stationNames)
thisStation = stations(ismember(stations.station_name, stationNames{sx}), :);
adjustedStationName = matlab.lang.makeValidName(stationNames{sx});
for mx = 1:length(monthText)
finalStations.([adjustedStationName, '_', monthText{mx}]) = ...
thisStation(month(thisStation.date) == mx, :);
end
end

I was also taking the route of putting them into a structure with a fieldname for each month.
months = {'Jan','Feb','Mar','Apr','May','Jun','Jul','Aug','Sep','Oct','Nov','Dec'}
for ii = 1:12
data.(months{c})=cellfun(@(x) x(month(x.data) == ii, :),C,'UniformOutput',false);
end

So data.Jan will have the exact same format as your original cell array but with only data from January of each year.
