Delete some columns from structure array

1 次查看(过去 30 天)
Hi. I am working with a structure array S (1 X 50,000) with 10 fields in which some columns are multiuple entries ands sub-set of another column.
Here is the input,
S(1).f1=[10,20,30 40,50,60], S(1).f2=[100,20,50,60,70,140],.........S(1).f10=[11,22,33,44,55,66];
S(2).f1=[56,98,74,87,99] and S(2).f2=[101,54,69,20,11],....... S(2).f10=.........[54,55,65,74,90];
S(3).f1=...... and S(3).f2=.....
S(4).f1=.... and S(4).f2=.....
.
.
S(13).f1=[10,20,30 40,50,60,70,80,90,100], S(13).f2=[100,20,50,60,70,140,160,200,220,300],.........S(13).f10=[11,22,33,44,55,66,65,72,34,61];
.
.
.
As we can see S(1) is a sub-set of S(13). I want to write a loop to compare all the columns and retain only the ones with maximum length; meaning that to delete S(1) and retain S(13) in the above example.
Can someone please help me with this.

toDel = false(1, numel(S));
for i1 = 1:numel(S)
data1 = S(i1).f1;
n1 = numel(data1);
for i2 = i1 + 1:numel(S)
if ~toDel(i2)
data2 = S(i2).f1;
n2 = numel(data2);
if n1 >= n2
if isequal(data1(1:n2), data2)
toDel(i2) = true;
end
elseif isequal(data1, data2(1:n1))
toDel(i1) = true;
end
end
end
end
S(toDel) = [];
Maybe "subset of" does not mean, that the first elements are equal. Then all(ismember()) might be, what you need instead of isequal.
