How do I break a table down into rows, and make the rows become variable in the work space?

Hi, I have a 39x3 table, and it has three columns (parameter, units, value), and there are 39 parameters. How do I make it so that I can access the parameter by their names and get the value and unit to also be included when I call it?

Why?

Why not just use the table ?

Magically creating variables in a workspace is a bad idea (no matter how much beginners like to dream it up), and should be avoided if you want to learn how to write efficient, readable, and robust code:

I will use the table, but how do I access the specific parameters on it (ensuring it still comes with units etc)? Sorry - maybe the question was a little misleading.

According to the table documentation you can simply do this when the table has rowNames defined:

T2 = patients({'Adams','Brown'},:)

In your case you might find it easiest to convert the first column into rownames, then accessing the data will be as simple as:

your_table('parameter_name',:)
