Find length of a structure element and remove them according to length?

2 visualizzazioni (ultimi 30 giorni)
If I have a structure "output" with a field "output.I".
How can I check the lengths of all the output(1:end).I in one go and then remove the those rows from the structure that I do not require.
For example
output(1).I has a length of 100X1
output(2).I has a length of 200X1
output(3).I has a length of 100X1
I want to remove output(2).I = [] and my final structure to only have output(1).I and output(3).I
Please advise.

Do you want to remove the structure element, or just empty out the field? The latter can be easily solved with a loop (and there may be several methods to do it faster), while the first is quite tricky (and will cause your elements to be renumbered).

I want to remove the element. The indexing will be an issue and so I was thinking maybe there is an easy way to do it.

L = arrayfun(@(k) numel(output(k).I), 1:numel(output))
output(L > 100) = [] ; % remove those elements of the structure array

Simpler:
len = arrayfun(@(s)numel(s.I),output);
output(len>100) = []
Or simplest:
len = cellfun('length',{output.I});
output(len>100) = []

If I could I would accept all answers. Amazing guys! Thanks for the help.
Stephen Cobeldick, your code is really simple! Appreciate it.
