'Ontario' 7340 393
Create a table from data in the session using row names:
Lake = {'Superior','Michigan','Huron','Erie','Ontario'};

Volume = [2900, 1180, 850, 116, 393];
t = table('RowNames', Lake, Area, Volume)
         Area Volume

Volume = [2900, 1180, 850, 116, 393];
t = table('RowNames', Lake, Area, Volume);
t.Area
ans = [Matrix] 1 x 5
31700  22300  23000  9910  7340
Create a table from data in the session and extract a single value:
Lake = {'Superior','Michigan','Huron','Erie','Ontario'};
Area = [31700, 22300, 23000, 9910, 7340];
Volume = [2900, 1180, 850, 116, 393];
t = table(Lake, Area, Volume);
t(1,1)
ans = Superior
Create a table from a cell array:
t = table({'A',1,2; 'B',3,4; 'C',5,6})
'A' 1 2
'B' 3 4
