MATLAB: Add a new field to structure

Question

Hi all friends

I have a structure variable; this variable is defined as follows:

Student structure; consists of the following fields

Name

Age

Suppose that I fill it with data (for example five students)

Later I want to add another field (for example degree field) to student structure

How can I do that and fill the degree field with data

Please help me

Answer 1

 teststruct = struct('names',{'bob','dave','sara'});
 % now add field called data
 [teststruct(:).data] = deal(randn(3,1));
 fieldnames(teststruct)
