Converting table elements to individual arrays and assigning the same header
55 views (last 30 days)

I have an n x 85 table and I'm looking for a way to assign each of these individual columns to a separate array under the same existing header name (all string). table2array(T) let's me convert the table to individual arrays but I want to run a for loop in order to assign the same header to each of these newly created arrays. I've extracted the header names using the following where T is my table: table_names = T.Properties.VariableNames.
Not sure how to now assign this name to the rest of the numeric data from each column on the table.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

t = table();
t.col_a = [1;2;3];
t.col_b = [10;11;12]
column_names = t.Properties.VariableNames;
for i = 1:numel(column_names)
colname = string(column_names(i));
eval(sprintf("%s = t.(colname)", colname))
end
