I'm a student who just started studying matlab.
I have a question on the structure, What should I do to return the 'name' of the person with the best eyesight, in this structure?
I'd really like to ask you for an answer.
man(1).name = 'lim jong su';
man(1).Height = 183;
man(1).Sight = [0.5 , 0.7];
man(2).name = 'lee do hyun';
man(2).Height = 180;
man(2).Sight = [1.5 , 1.2];
man(3).name = 'lee gi jung';
man(3).Height = 176;
man(3).Sight = [1.0 , 1.2];

Which one of those fields describes "Eyesight"? "Sight"? If so, which number? The min, max, mean???
Is this an assignment?

Since it's your assignment:
1) Use arrayfun() for Sight using sum() assuming the max sum is the best Sight.
2) max() the result of arrayfun() by taking the second input of max.
3) Index the second output of max() to man(index).name to get the name.
