Calling Konstants from string with name instead of index

Hello everyone,

I have a string A containing konstants, which are calculated before.

A=[M_sig epsopen Emod sigopen]

Is there any way I can use the konstants name in equations instead of using the index? It would be great so I can recognice the used formula and don't need to check for the konstant name.

Like using

Emod*sigopen instead of A(3)*(4)

Thanks for your help

Yes, if you make A a table or structure. Here's a structure example:

% Create sample data.
M_sig =1;
epsopen = 2;
Emod = 3;
sigopen = 4;

% Create a structure.
A= struct('M_sig', M_sig, 'epsopen', epsopen, 'Emod', Emod, 'sigopen', sigopen)

% Do the math.
output = A.Emod * A.sigopen

thank you!

Are you just trying to do this?

[M_sig,epsopen,Emod,sigopen] = deal(A(1),A(2),A(3),A(4));
