MATLAB: Write a function called year2016 that returns a row-vector of struct-s whose elements correspond to the days of a month in 2016 as specified by the input argument. If the input is not an integer between 1 and 12, the function returns the empty arra

year2016

This is my code. Could you please tell me
function m = year2016
  for i = 1:31
      [MonthNumber, DateName] = weekday(datenum([2016 1:12 i]));
      m.(i) = struct('month','MonthNumber','date',i,'day', DateName);
  end

This code does the job (copied from my answer to this question, so this code is already in the public domain)
function out = year2016(m)
VN = datenum([2016,m,1]):datenum([2016,m+1,1])-1;
DN = 1+mod(VN-3,7);
MC = {'January';'February';'March';'April';'May';'June';'July';'August';'September';'October';'November';'December'};
DC = {'Mon','Tue','Wed','Thu','Fri','Sat','Sun'};
out = struct('day',DC(DN),'date',num2cell(1:numel(VN)));
[out(:).month] = deal(MC{m});
end
And tested:
>> m = year2016(12); m(8)
ans =
    day = Thu
    date =  8
    month = December
>> m = year2016(1); m(1)
ans =
    day = Fri
    date =  1
    month = January
>> m = year2016(2); m(29)
ans =
    day = Mon
    date =  29
    month = February
>> m = year2016(4); m(1)
ans =
    day = Fri
    date =  1
    month = April
