select, only once, the names present in a struct

1 view (last 30 days)
I have the following struct. Is it possible to select, only once, the names in the 'SeriesDescription' column? So I would need to create, in this case, a struct or table consisting only of: 'Scout', 'Serie', 'standard'.

S.Number = compose('%04d', 0:16)'; % create test data since you only included a picture of your data
desc = {'Scout'; 'Scout'; 'Scout'};
for i = 4:13
desc{i} = 'Serie';
end
for i = 14:17
desc{i} = 'standard';
end
S.SeriesDescription = desc;
% Now, extract the unique elements of SeriesDescription and create a table
T = table(unique(S.SeriesDescription), 'VariableNames', {'SeriesDescription'})
T = 3×1 table
SeriesDescription _________________ {'Scout' } {'Serie' } {'standard'}
