So for this i have created a structure with 6 other subjects and marks my doubt is how should automatically print out highest marks form structure please help me.
This my struture below:

student.subjects(1).mark=80;
student.subjects(2).name='ENGG102';
student.subjects(2).mark=70;
student.subjects(3).name='ENGG156';
student.subjects(3).mark=23;
student.subjects(4).name='ENGG678';
student.subjects(4).mark=58;
student.subjects(5).name='ENGG104';
student.subjects(5).mark=90;
student.subjects(6).name='MATHS142';
student.subjects(6).mark=78;

Best Answer

Use the below code to find the subject with the highest mark and print the subject name.
len = length(student.subjects);
for i = 1:len
    marks(i) = student.subjects(i).mark;
end
[M,Idx] = max(marks); 
subName = student.subjects(Idx).name;
