MATLAB: Extract first row from cell arrays

cell arraysMATLAB

Hey all, I have a 1 x 3 cell, which contains tables. In each table there are a lat and lon columns, I want to extract the first row of these columns from each table and store them below each other in an array. I thought about unique function but since there is just an example and my original data has many points with the same latitude and different longitude and vice versa it's not applicable in this case.
BTW here is my try:
for i = 1:numel(test)
lat(i) = test{i}(1,3);
lon(i) = test{i}(1,4);
LATandLON = (lat(i), lon(i))
end
Again since the original data set is really huge and maybe different column's number, I would like to avoid hard coding but I don't know how to do this in this case.
Thank you

The following will give a 3-element cell array, where each cell has a 360x2 numeric array with the latitude and longitude vectors:
latAndLon = cellfun(@(x)[x.lat x.lon],test,'UniformOutput',false);
This code gives the same result as
for i = 1:numel(test)
latAndLon{i} = [test{i}.lat, test{i}.lon]
end
which might be easier to understand.
