Example if I have a table called data
Type Test 1
A 23
A 12
A 97
A 72
B 12
B 55
C 22
C 98
C 76
and I want to find the max and min of Type A only. Is there anyway to call Type A without hardcoding data(1,:4)

Of course, you don't need to hardcode anything.
If you really just want A:
[minval, maxval] = bounds(data.Test1(data.Type == 'A')) %The exact type and name of your table variables is unclear. Adapt as needed
However, you could obtain the max and min of all types at once. This may be more useful:
groupsummary(data, 'Type', {'max', 'min'})
