Now I am getting the error in line 216, temp=min(min_dis,sqrt( (S(i).xd-C(c).xd)^2 + (S(i).yd-C(c).yd)^2 ) );

Please note that this isn't the first time I am using S(i).xd, I have used it before also.

I am stumped. Please help. Just guide me towards the correct syntax/usage.

I am out of touch with matlab.

The problem is related to structure C, not structure S.

The fields xd and yd of structure C are defined inside while loops whose conditions are never true on the 250th iteration of the r loop, thus you do not define those fields. This pretty easy to check: just run the code until the error occurs, then check the values in the workspace:

>> h
h =  1
>> i
i =  1
>> r
r =  250
>> C
C =
  1x250 struct array containing the fields:
    distance
    id
>> countCHs
countCHs = 0
>> t
t = 0
>> k
k =  20

It is quite clear that the conditions, e.g.:

while (countCHs < t)

are not met, so those while loops don't run.
